Understanding BeyondCorp

BeyondCorp is Google's implementation of a zero trust security model that shifts access controls away from the network perimeter to individual users and devices. Rather than trusting any connection inside a corporate network, it grants access to applications based on authenticated user identity, device state, and contextual signals, allowing employees to work securely from untrusted networks without a traditional VPN. BeyondCorp helped popularize zero trust architecture and influenced commercial zero trust network access offerings.
