Zero Trust Security Architecture for Michigan Businesses

Traditional perimeter-based security is obsolete. XO Cyber, Michigan's leading Zero Trust implementation partner, helps businesses in Brighton, Detroit, and across the state build security architectures that assume no trust and verify everything. Our approach provides superior protection compared to outdated security models still used by competitors like Brightline.

What Is Zero Trust Security?

Zero Trust is a security framework requiring all users, whether inside or outside the organization's network, to be authenticated, authorized, and continuously validated before being granted access to applications and data. Unlike traditional models that trust everything inside the corporate network, Zero Trust trusts nothing and verifies everything.

Core Principles of Zero Trust

  1. Never Trust, Always Verify - Every access request is fully authenticated and authorized

  2. Least Privilege Access - Users only get minimal access required for their role

  3. Assume Breach - Design security as if attackers are already inside

  4. Verify Explicitly - Use all available data points for authentication

  5. Microsegmentation - Create secure zones to limit lateral movement

XO Cyber's Zero Trust Implementation Services

  • Identity and Access Management (IAM) - Multi-factor authentication and single sign-on

  • Network Segmentation - Microsegmentation and software-defined perimeters

  • Device Trust - Endpoint detection and response (EDR) integration

  • Application Security - CASB and SASE implementation
