This IDC Analyst Brief, sponsored by Storj, explores how decentralized storage infrastructure enhances Zero Trust security models. As traditional perimeter-based security approaches become inadequate due to increased attack surfaces and sophisticated threats, Zero Trust shifts focus to identity-based access control. Decentralized storage further strengthens Zero Trust by distributing data across multiple locations, making it more difficult for attackers to breach the system. Techniques like erasure coding and zero knowledge encryption enhance security, providing a robust defense against ransomware and other attacks. This approach aligns well with the needs of today's distributed workforce and digital-first enterprises
