  • Zero Trust Security Requires Edge-Based Trust Decisions

    Zero Trust Security Requires Edge-Based Trust Decisions

    Zero trust for physical security systems requires distributed trust with centralized governance, where policy decisions are made centrally but enforced locally at the edge (e.g., door controllers) to meet tight latency constraints like 200-millisecond unlock times. Organizations risk slowly drift...
