It’s notable that 75% also have encountered issues because of relying on cloud-only ZTNA. Many companies need to secure access to applications both on-premises and outside of the network, and nearly 40% of respondents report still hosting more than half of their applications on-premises. Solutions must cover both on-premises and remote users with a consistent application access policy and success has been mixed Other reported challenges relate to end-to-end policy enforcement, application latency, and a lack of reliable information to help select and design a zero-trust solution. 48% of respondents indicated that a lack of integration between the zero-trust solutions deployed on-premises and in the cloud is the most significant issue they need to address. Organizations continue to face challenges in implementing their zero-trust strategiesĪlthough companies are moving forward, they still face challenges. Companies are working to enable zero trust everywhere to minimize the impacts of a breach.

The number of respondents that report being in the process of implementation is 66%, up from 54% in 2021. Since the last survey in 2021, companies have deployed more solutions as part of their zero-trust strategies. Zero-trust implementation strategies Organizations of all sizes are working to implement zero-trust strategies To successfully implement zero trust, organizations need solutions that are designed to converge networking and security and have the ability to span multiple environments,” said John Maddison, EVP Products and CMO at Fortinet. “Although more organizations are implementing a zero-trust strategy, they still face challenges related to integration. They have also addressed the need to secure remote workers, according to Fortinet.

IT teams have made security efforts and progress in zero-trust implementation strategies to establish a new sense of normalcy following the network upheaval caused by the start of the global pandemic.
