Arnold provides insights into the DoD's Zero Trust Overlays guide and the future evolution of zero-trust principles in a military context.

Where should the military begin its training process for zero trust principles? Should specific tools or technologies be implemented first to support this training?

While zero trust is a strong foundation for DoD, initial military training should be focused on base technologies and a taxonomy that can ensure everyone is talking about the components of zero trust in the same way.

It is hard to identify a technology that should be implemented first since each service and agency is free to implement zero trust in the manner that best fits their mission across a myriad of zero trust solutions.

Can you provide an overview of the DoD's Zero Trust Overlays guide? What are its main objectives? How does this guide standardize the approach to zero trust across the armed services?

The DoD's Zero Trust Overlays guide is meant to provide clear, actionable guidance for how an agency can properly implement a zero trust architecture in a methodical, phased approach.
