Key components include identity verification, device posture assessment, and policy-based authorization. Network access control, strong encryption
Common technologies and standards used to establish trusted networks include 802.1X for port-based access control, RADIUS
For governance, trusted networks rely on formal policies that define who or what can access which resources,
Limitations include the complexity of implementing posture checks at scale, potential performance overhead, and risks from
