Trust Model
A Trust Model in software architecture refers to the framework that defines how trust is established, maintained, and managed between different components within a system. It outlines the relationships and assumptions about the security and reliability of those components, guiding decisions on access control, data integrity, and communication protocols. By clearly defining trust boundaries, the model helps ensure that the system can effectively mitigate risks and vulnerabilities.

What is Continuous Trust?
Continuous trust is an evolution of the traditional zero trust model, emphasizing the need for ongoing verification of identity and access in real-time. This approach is essential in environments where systems operate continuously and dynamically, rather than through discrete checkpoints.

How does Continuous Trust work?
Continuous trust operates by integrating identity verification, dynamic credential management, and real-time access control into a unified system. This model ensures that trust is evaluated continuously as actions occur, rather than at predefined checkpoints.

Why Continuous Trust Matters
Continuous trust is crucial for maintaining security in environments where systems operate dynamically and continuously. It ensures that access and identity verification are aligned with real-time actions, reducing the risk of unauthorized access.
