What the Checklist Covers

47 actionable items across 6 Zero Trust pillars.

Pillar 1: Identity Verification

MFA enforcement, conditional access policies, identity provider federation, and privileged identity management across all cloud accounts.

Pillar 2: Device Trust

Endpoint compliance checks, device attestation, certificate-based authentication, and MDM integration for accessing cloud resources.

Pillar 3: Network Microsegmentation

VPC isolation, security group hardening, service mesh deployment, and east-west traffic inspection using AWS VPC Flow Logs and Azure NSGs.

Pillar 4: Least Privilege Access

IAM policy auditing, permission boundaries, just-in-time access provisioning, and service account credential rotation across all three clouds.

Pillar 5: Data Protection

Encryption at rest and in transit, DLP policies, data classification tagging, and key management using AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, and GCP Cloud KMS.

Pillar 6: Continuous Monitoring

SIEM integration, anomaly detection, automated incident response playbooks, and compliance drift monitoring using CloudTrail, Sentinel, and Chronicle.
