The Trusted Network Initiative has evolved into a global endeavor aimed at promoting the development and deployment of networks that prioritize security and trustworthiness.
TNA’s Objective
At the core of our strategy lies the adoption of the Zero Trust Architecture, endorsed by the US Department of Defense.
This revolutionary approach redefines conventional concepts of network security, placing paramount importance on [continuous verification] and [stringent access controls]. By doing so, we significantly mitigate the risks associated with breaches and unauthorized access, aligning with cutting-edge practices to safeguard our corporate assets.
