No Trust on Password, No Trust on Zero Trust
On my earlier post “Driven by Ignorance?” https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hitoshikokumai_your-voice-can-be-a-password-are-you-protecting-activity-7037969991379419136-8F0K
I found this comment “Zero Trust cannot be achieved via probabilistic methods, the numbers for false decision (however small) will never be zero. If probabilistic methods are used anywhere in user, device, network or application chain, then zero is not possible.”
Definitely, there can be no trust on ‘Zero Trust’ where security people have no trust on secret credentials for deterministic authentication factors.

Coincidentally, I learnt from Hanno Ekdahl’s latest Security Newsletter this article — “Why Physical Identity And Access Management Are Key To A True Zero-Trust Architecture” https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbesbusinessdevelopmentcouncil/2023/03/03/why-physical-identity-and-access-management-are-key-to-a-true-zero-trust-architecture/
It reads “In conclusion, cybersecurity policies must incorporate physical identity and access management not only for true security, including zero-trust policies and GRC, but also for successful digital transformation and a positive workplace experience.”
I would agree to it provided it is not contaminated by a misperception about the value of citizens’ volition and memory; Democracy would be lost where the password that we feed volitionally was lost. When authentication happens without our knowledge or against our will, it’s a 1984-like Dystopia.
Well, physical identity must mean the identity of human beings having their history of personal experiences with the pleasure of eating, drinking and the pains of hunger and thirst
