This paper provides an overview of the need for Zero Trust Workload Protection, applying the principles of this model to mission-critical applications. It also details how the Virsec Security Platform uses a Zero Trust model and extends it deep into application workloads. By integrating application-awareness and runtime protection, Virsec guardrails applications during runtime and ensures that they only execute as intended. The solution stops advanced attacks without prior knowledge, while making Zero Trust security effective, practical, and automated.
