Reverse stress testing helps prune the exploding tree of future scenarios that complicates "forward" stress testing. Conditioning on future states works for opportunities too: imagine a desired outcome; work backwards to identify probable paths towards it happening. #riskmanagement

The US is proposing new ESTA requirements mandating five years of social media history, older email and phone details, family information, and a selfie for identity verification. This applies to 42 Visa Waiver Program countries and is currently under public review.
The update raises questions around data minimization, privacy, and operational security for travelers, while DHS cites the need for stronger vetting.
How should such screening frameworks balance risk management with individual privacy expectations?

In schools, 5 seconds can change everything. Same loud bang, two very different timelines. In many active-shooter events, it takes 5 minutes on average just to call 911 after the first shot.

SplitSec.AI is designed to shrink that to about 15 seconds from BANG → alert on staff phones → earlier action, with 100% on-device processing (no cloud audio, no recordings).

Seoul’s cyber investigation unit has raided Coupang’s HQ after the company disclosed a breach affecting 33.7M users.

Authorities suggest a former employee with privileged access obtained a private encryption key and generated forged customer tokens.
Digital evidence seized during the raid is expected to clarify the breach’s full method and scope.

The situation highlights ongoing debates in South Korea about corporate accountability, insider risk management, and security governance.

Zero Trust Security Model Explained: Is It Right for Your Organization?

1,135 words, 6 minutes read time.

When I first walked into a SOC that proudly claimed it had “implemented Zero Trust,” I expected to see a modern, frictionless security environment. What I found instead was a network still anchored to perimeter defenses, VPNs, and a false sense of invincibility. That’s the brutal truth about Zero Trust: it isn’t a single product or an off-the-shelf solution. It’s a philosophy, a mindset, a commitment to questioning every assumption about trust in your organization. For those of us in the trenches—SOC analysts, incident responders, and CISOs alike—the question isn’t whether Zero Trust is a buzzword. The real question is whether your organization has the discipline, visibility, and operational maturity to adopt it effectively.

Zero Trust starts with a principle that sounds simple but is often the hardest to implement: never trust, always verify. Every access request, every data transaction, and every network connection is treated as untrusted until explicitly validated. Identity is the new perimeter, and every user, device, and service must prove its legitimacy continuously. This approach is grounded in lessons learned from incidents like the SolarWinds supply chain compromise, where attackers leveraged trusted internal credentials to breach multiple organizations, or the Colonial Pipeline attack, which exploited a single VPN credential. In a Zero Trust environment, those scenarios would have been mitigated by enforcing strict access policies, continuous monitoring, and segmented network architecture. Zero Trust is less about walls and more about a web of checks and validations that constantly challenge assumptions about trust.

Identity and Access Management: The First Line of Defense

Identity and access management (IAM) is where Zero Trust begins its work, and it’s arguably the most important pillar for any organization. Multi-factor authentication, adaptive access controls, and strict adherence to least-privilege principles aren’t optional—they’re foundational. I’ve spent countless nights in incident response chasing lateral movement across networks where MFA was inconsistently applied, watching attackers move as if the organization had handed them the keys. Beyond authentication, modern IAM frameworks incorporate behavioral analytics to detect anomalies in real time, flagging suspicious logins, unusual access patterns, or attempts to elevate privileges. In practice, this means treating every login attempt as a potential threat, continuously evaluating risk, and denying implicit trust even to high-ranking executives. Identity management in Zero Trust isn’t just about logging in securely; it’s about embedding vigilance into the culture of your organization.

Implementing IAM effectively goes beyond deploying technology—it requires integrating identity controls with real operational processes. Automated workflows, incident triggers, and granular policy enforcement are all part of the ecosystem. I’ve advised organizations that initially underestimated the complexity of this pillar, only to discover months later that a single misconfigured policy left sensitive systems exposed. Zero Trust forces organizations to reimagine how users and machines interact with critical assets. It’s not convenient, and it’s certainly not fast, but it’s the difference between containing a breach at the door or chasing it across the network like a shadowy game of cat and mouse.

Device Security: Closing the Endpoint Gap

The next pillar, device security, is where Zero Trust really earns its reputation as a relentless defender. In a world where employees connect from laptops, mobile devices, and IoT sensors, every endpoint is a potential vector for compromise. I’ve seen attackers exploit a single unmanaged device to pivot through an entire network, bypassing perimeter defenses entirely. Zero Trust counters this by continuously evaluating device posture, enforcing compliance checks, and integrating endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions into the access chain. A device that fails a health check is denied access, and its behavior is logged for forensic analysis.

Device security in a Zero Trust model isn’t just reactive—it’s proactive. Threat intelligence feeds, real-time monitoring, and automated responses allow organizations to identify compromised endpoints before they become a gateway for further exploitation. In my experience, organizations that ignore endpoint rigor often suffer from lateral movement and data exfiltration that could have been prevented. Zero Trust doesn’t assume that being inside the network makes a device safe; it enforces continuous verification and ensures that trust is earned and maintained at every stage. This approach dramatically reduces the likelihood of stealthy intrusions and gives security teams actionable intelligence to respond quickly.

Micro-Segmentation and Continuous Monitoring: Containing Threats Before They Spread

Finally, Zero Trust relies on micro-segmentation and continuous monitoring to limit the blast radius of any potential compromise. Networks can no longer be treated as monolithic entities where attackers move laterally with ease. By segmenting traffic into isolated zones and applying strict access policies between them, organizations create friction that slows or stops attackers in their tracks. I’ve seen environments where a single compromised credential could have spread malware across the network, but segmentation contained the incident to a single zone, giving the SOC time to respond without a full-scale outage.

Continuous monitoring complements segmentation by providing visibility into every action and transaction. Behavioral analytics, SIEM integration, and proactive threat hunting are essential for detecting anomalies that might indicate a breach. In practice, this means SOC teams aren’t just reacting to alerts—they’re anticipating threats, understanding patterns, and applying context-driven controls. Micro-segmentation and monitoring together transform Zero Trust from a static set of rules into a living, adaptive security posture. Organizations that master this pillar not only protect themselves from known threats but gain resilience against unknown attacks, effectively turning uncertainty into an operational advantage.

Conclusion: Zero Trust as a Philosophy, Not a Product

Zero Trust is not a checkbox, a software package, or a single deployment. It is a security philosophy that forces organizations to challenge assumptions, scrutinize trust, and adopt a mindset of continuous verification. Identity, devices, and network behavior form the pillars of this approach, each demanding diligence, integration, and cultural buy-in. For organizations willing to embrace these principles, the rewards are tangible: reduced attack surface, limited lateral movement, and a proactive, anticipatory security posture. For those unwilling or unprepared to change, claiming “Zero Trust” is little more than window dressing, a label that offers the illusion of safety while leaving vulnerabilities unchecked. The choice is stark: treat trust as a vulnerability and defend accordingly, or risk becoming the next cautionary tale in an increasingly hostile digital landscape.
