NextLabs' Data Access Enforcer (DAE)
Fortifying the Digital Core with a Data-Centric Security FrameworkOrganizations are harnessing technology like AI and cloud computing to create a 'digital core' for real-time insights and operational agility, but must simultaneously implement Zero Trust Data-Centric Security to protect sensitive data and enhance competitiveness.
How Boeing Adopts Zero Trust Data-Centric Security with NextLabsSecuring data for organizations with a global workforce is a complex challenge, especially with the dynamic nature of data flows in ERP systems. Traditional static or role-based access controls often lead to excessive permissions, poor user experience, and leave critical data vulnerable. To address these issues, organizations need to adopt a more proactive, dynamic approach like NextLabs Zero Trust Data-Centric Security. This strategy combines zero trust principles with data-centric security to enforce least privilege access, ensuring that only authorized users can access sensitive data. By leveraging a unified policy platform and real-time Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), this approach enhances data protection, simplifies security management, and ensures regulatory compliance while enabling secure collaboration across all environments.

Transforming Data-Centric Security with NextLabsAs organizations face complex and evolving cyber threats, many are adopting the Zero Trust security model, which counters the inadequacies of traditional perimeter-based defenses by adopting a default-deny approach that treats all access requests, including internal ones, with suspicion. This paradigm shift strengthens data security through rigorous access controls and continuous monitoring to mitigate data breaches. Zero Trust further secures remote access by enforcing strict authentication across all users and devices, compliant with regulatory standards such as HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR, and limits attackers' lateral movements within networks by segmenting resources. A key example is the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command's (INDOPACOM) implementation of Zero Trust, following the U.S. Department of Defense's architecture. Initiated in Summer 2021, this strategy transitioned INDOPACOM to a data-centric security approach with a framework that bolsters the security of classified and unclassified networks and supports coalition collaborations. Employing dynamic authorization and enhancing data control, this model supports advanced data analysis and strategic decision-making, progressively refining support for AI and machine learning, thereby marking significant advancements in cybersecurity practices.
