Announcement
The NIST National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) has released the fourth version of our preliminary draft practice guide, Implementing a Zero Trust Architecture (NIST SP 1800-35), for public comment. This publication outlines results and best practices from the NCCoE effort to work with 24 vendors to demonstrate end-to-end zero trust architectures.
Starting with this release, we are introducing our traditional NIST SP 1800-35 document in two formats; one High-Level Document in PDF Format and one Full Document in Web Format. The document in PDF format is meant to serve as introductory reading with insight into the project effort (since it provides a high-level summary of project goals, reference architecture, various ZTA implementations, and findings).
The web format document provides in-depth details about technologies leveraged, their integrations and configurations, and the use cases and scenarios demonstrated. It also contains information on the implemented security capabilities and their mappings to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) versions 1.1 and 2.0, NIST SP 800-53r5, and security measures outlined in “EO-Critical Software” under Executive Order 14028.
Please submit comments by completing the comment template which includes 3 tabs (“Overall” tab, “High-Level Document in PDF” tab and “Full Document in Web Format” tab). Please email the comment spreadsheet to nccoe-zta-project@list.nist.gov by September 30th, 2024.
A zero trust architecture (ZTA) enables secure authorized access to enterprise resources that are distributed across on-premises and multiple cloud environments, while enabling a hybrid workforce and partners to access resources from anywhere, at any time, from any device in support of the organization’s mission.
This NIST Cybersecurity Practice Guide explains how organizations can implement ZTA consistent with the concepts and principles outlined in NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-207, Zero Trust Architecture. The NCCoE worked with 24 collaborators under Cooperative Research Development Agreements (CRADAs) to integrate commercially available technology to build 17 ZTA example implementations and demonstrate a number of common use cases. Detailed technical information on each build can serve as a valuable resource for your technology implementers by providing models they can emulate. The lessons learned from the implementations and integrations can benefit your organization by saving time and resources. This guide also includes mappings of ZTA principles to commonly used security standards and guidance.
