DXC zero trust solutions

Accelerate zero trust adoption and strengthen your security posture 


Optimize operational efficiency, ensure compliance and build customer trust

Zero trust is a comprehensive security approach that replaces implicit trust with continuous risk assessment based on identity and context. DXC helps organizations adopt a zero trust model through strategy, planning, preparation, transformation and operational management of key security domains such as identity, devices, applications, workloads and data. Get started on your zero trust journey by going through our zero trust checklist.


DXC zero trust solutions and capabilities

DXC assists organizations in creating tailored zero trust solutions strategies.

Security Advisory

DXC helps organizations develop strategic plans to implement a custom zero trust approach.

Zero trust IAM: Secure remote operations on any device, ensuring security and compliance.

Identity & Access Management (IAM)

Never trust, always verify to connect people and machines securely. Enable people to operate from anywhere, on any device or channel, without compromising enterprise security or regulatory compliance.

 

DXC offers 24/7 zero trust monitoring, integrating data from tools, IT services, endpoints, and infrastructure to detect and respond to suspicious activity in real-time.

Managed Detection & Response (MDR)

DXC provides 24x7 monitoring of zero trust components, combining feeds from other tools and corporate IT services with information from endpoints and infrastructure. Warnings of suspicious activity are fed back to enable real-time action.

DXC’s ZTNA solutions leverage partnerships with Zscaler and Palo Alto Networks for comprehensive protection.

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)

DXC’s ZTNA solutions harness the power of our strategic partnerships with industry leaders like Zscaler and Palo Alto Networks to provide comprehensive protection.

DXC's Zero Trust Segmentation ensures strong application and infrastructure isolation.

Zero Trust Segmentation

DXC Zero Trust Segmentation capabilities provide robust application and infrastructure isolation.

Enable secure, accountable access to data and services by verifying digital identities of people, applications, and machines.

Digital Identity

Enable people, applications and machines to verify their digital identities and securely and accountably access data and services.

Centralized management of digital identities, encryption keys, and certificates ensures secure communication, trust, and regulatory compliance.

Key & Certificate Services

Ensure secure communication, establish trust and streamline regulatory compliance with centralized management of digital identities, encryption keys and certificates.

Enforce continuous, adaptive MFA for all data access, ensuring security regardless of user or location.

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Enforce continuous and adaptive authentication, no matter who or what is accessing your data, wherever that data is stored.

Use PAM to govern privileged access, deter attackers, avoid misconfigurations, enforce policies, maintain audit trails, and ensure only qualified staff make changes.

Privileged Access Management (PAM)

Govern privileged access to deter attackers and avoid accidental misconfigurations. Know your accounts, enforce policies, maintain audit trails and ensure only qualified staff make approved changes.

Automate user provisioning, access policy enforcement, recertifications, and audit reporting to reduce regulatory compliance costs.

Identity Governance & Administration

Reduce the cost of regulatory compliance by automating user provisioning, access policy enforcement, user recertifications and audit reporting.


 

Core principles of zero trust

Continuous verification

Enforce dynamic authorization at all times, basing access decisions on multiple factors including identity, location, device health and behavioral anomalies.

Least-privilege access

Grant only the minimum necessary privileges to resources, replacing broad network access with precise, controlled permissions.

Assume breach

Operate under the assumption that a breach has occurred. Adopt a "never trust, always verify" mindset and implement strong network segmentation to limit potential lateral movement.

Continuous monitoring and assessment

Identify and mitigate risks proactively, enhancing overall cybersecurity resilience.

Ready for zero trust? Get started today by completing our zero trust checklist

 

Implementing a zero trust security model can be challenging. As a first step to get you started on your zero trust journey, refer to the checklist provided below. You can contact the DXC security team to explore how DXC can help you on that journey.

Clear strategy

Avoid fragmenting workstreams to prevent project disturbance and delay, and proceed in stages to ensure availability of funds and resources. 

  • Have you defined a zero trust roadmap that is aligned with business objectives?
  • Are you coordinating zero trust implementation across all functions?
  • Have you planned a budget for zero trust initiatives?
  • Are you implementing zero trust in phases to manage resources effectively?

Enhanced IAM

Reduce the attack surface and protect digital assets for both on-premises and cloud deployments, across all major operating systems.

  • Are you continuously verifying users, devices and applications?
  • Do you have strong organizational support for your IAM initiatives?
  • Are MFA and least privilege access implemented in a way to support a seamless user experience?

Endpoint security

Rapidly detect and respond to threats at the device level with a multi-layered approach.

  • Have you deployed endpoint protection solutions across all devices?
  • Are you conducting regular security assessments and updates for your endpoints?
  • Are devices regularly monitored for compliance and security posture?

Network segmentation

Gain more granular control over traffic and applications, preventing malicious actors or software from crossing device and component boundaries.

  • Have you segmented your networks to limit lateral movement of threats?
  • Are you implementing micro-segmentation where applicable?
  • Is your network traffic monitored in real-time to detect anomalies?

Application security

Don’t undermine the overall security posture at the user, application or workload levels.

  • Do your security measures avoid disrupting the user experience, potentially driving them to work around your controls? 
  • Are applications regularly assessed for vulnerabilities and patched promptly?
  • Are you using secure coding practices and conducting regular code reviews?

Data protection

Adapt your data protection strategies to span your entire data infrastructure and support all data types. 

  • Do you have a comprehensive continuously verified inventory of all devices, applications and data within your organization?
  • Are you regularly updating and patching your assets to ensure they remain secure?
  • Is sensitive data encrypted both at rest and in transit?
