Zero-trust security for the impatient

Zero-trust isn't a product, it's a posture. The shortest path is to identify every trust boundary, place an identity-aware proxy at each one, and remove every implicit trust your network currently grants.

You don't need to boil the ocean. Start with the riskiest boundary — usually contractor laptops or third-party SaaS — and harden it end to end before moving on.

Tooling matters less than discipline. SPIFFE, Tailscale, Envoy, and Cloudflare Access can all get you there. Pick one and commit.
