Foundational Documents Released:
Released on January 8, 2026, this series starts with two key documents: the Primer and the Discovery Phase guidelines.
These publications lay the groundwork for understanding and preparing for Zero Trust implementation until detailed Phase 1 and Phase 2 guidance is released.
The Primer serves as the foundational strategic framework and guiding principles for the entire ZIG series. It outlines a thorough methodology for effectively leveraging the guidelines, highlighting a modular design that enables organizations, regardless of their maturity level, to choose capabilities that align with their unique environmental needs.
This flexibility allows organizations to tailor their Zero Trust approach to their current infrastructure and security status.
The Discovery Phase document helps organizations gain visibility into their infrastructure by identifying key data assets, applications, and services, and by analyzing access patterns and authorization activities.
This initial assessment establishes a trustworthy baseline for informed decision-making and strategic planning in Zero Trust deployment.
The discovery process tackles a prevalent obstacle that organizations encounter while implementing Zero Trust: identifying the assets that require protection and analyzing how users currently access them.
Organizations need foundational knowledge to prioritize Zero Trust capabilities and track implementation progress.
System owners, cybersecurity experts, and organizational stakeholders should read these basic guidelines to get ready for the upcoming detailed implementation advice from the NSA.
The documents are aimed at organizations aiming for the Zero Trust capabilities, activities, and outcomes outlined in the Department of War framework.
The modular design recognizes that organizations embark on their Zero Trust journeys from various starting points, enabling customized strategies instead of a universal implementation approach.
This hands-on method enhances the chances of effective adoption in various organizational contexts and different levels of security maturity.
