Zero-trust security is a cybersecurity framework that mandates strict identity verification for every user and device attempting to access resources, regardless of their location. This model operates on the principle “never trust, always verify,” assuming no user or network is inherently trustworthy. It requires continuous authentication and authorization for all access requests, applying least-privilege access controls. This approach significantly reduces the attack surface and minimizes the impact of potential breaches.

Given the high value and immutability of digital assets, implementing such rigorous security protocols is paramount. The adoption of zero-trust principles helps mitigate risks from both external threats and internal compromises within organizations handling cryptocurrencies.
