The answer is ‘Solid Identity Assurance’ for the people who are responsible for operation and management of the zero trust schemes.
‘Zero Trust’ would immediately turn into ‘Zero Security’ when the identities of these people are compromised. Then, what is most crucial to the solid identity assurance?
The answer is ‘Solid Secret Credential’, i.e., ‘Solid Password’, with a caveat that ‘solid password’ is extremely hard to achieve where we stick to ‘text-only’ passwords.
Fortunately, we know that we can find a valid solution from ‘Non-Text’ memories. The identity assurance powered by non-text secret credentials is not a hypothesis but has actually been practiced by soldiers for encrypted communications in the stressful outdoor environment since 2013 .
