Cybersecurity is evolving, and with it, companies’ requirements for access protection. The Zero Trust model, as defined by NIST 800-207, demands a strict approach: never trust by default, always verify.
Why is this essential?
• Reduces the risk of cyberattacks by limiting access to the strictly necessary.
• Compliance with regulations (ISO 27001, GDPR, NIS2) through access control and traceability.
• Adaptability to hybrid environments (cloud, SaaS, on-premise) with dynamic access rights management.
How does Netwrix Usercube fit into a Zero Trust strategy 
Usercube is an Identity and Access Governance (IGA) platform that allows organizations to adopt a robust and automated Zero Trust model.
The Role of Netwrix Usercube in Zero Trust
Precisely Control User Access
- Define and manage access rights based on business profiles and application roles.
- Provide granular permission assignments to avoid excessive access.
- Implement strict controls to reduce the risk of unauthorized access.
Automate Identity Management
- Automatically create, modify, and delete accounts.
- Synchronize with directories and target systems to ensure data consistency.
- Integrate validation and approval processes to ensure compliance.
Ensure Continuous and Contextual Verification
- Analyze access to detect suspicious behavior.
- Apply dynamic rules based on context and risk level.
- Delay or immediately revoke rights upon detection of anomalies.
Manage Audits and Compliance Effectively
- Automatically detect inconsistencies between the theoretical model and actual rights.
- Periodically recertify permissions for continuous compliance.
- Generate automated reports to meet regulatory requirements.
Usercube in action: the Zero Trust model in three steps
Verification of identities and rights (PIP - Policy Information Point)
Usercube centralizes all necessary information for making access decisions:
- Company directories, HR databases, IAM (e.g.: Azure AD, LDAP).
- Authorization engine based on roles and business context.
- Integration with security tools for dynamic risk assessment.
Intelligent access control (PDP - Policy Decision Point)
Usercube applies strict rules based on the principle of least privilege:
- Granular permission management (RBAC/ABAC).
- Automated approval workflows for all access requests.
- Periodic reviews of rights to avoid unnecessary accumulation of permissions.
Continuous enforcement and monitoring (PEP - Policy Enforcement Point)
With Usercube, every access is controlled and secured in real-time:
- Automated provisioning and deprovisioning of rights.
- Restriction of access based on risk level (location, device posture, etc.).
- Complete audit and traceability for flawless security and compliance.
Why choose Usercube for a Zero Trust approach?
