NSE 7 – Zero Trust Access 7.2 — Question 5

What are the three core principles of ZTA? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Verify
• B. Be compliant
• C. Certify
• D. Minimal access
• E. Assume breach

Correct answer: A, D, E

Explanation

The correct principles of Zero Trust Architecture include 'Verify', 'Minimal access', and 'Assume breach'. 'Verify' emphasizes the necessity of authenticating every user and device, 'Minimal access' focuses on limiting access rights to the bare minimum, and 'Assume breach' operates under the premise that threats may already exist in the network. 'Be compliant' and 'Certify' are not core principles of ZTA.
