Steps on moving to a ‘modern’, Zero Trust architecture

1. Moving away from VPN by publishing the apps via Azure AD App Proxy (per-app vpn)
2. Modernize the app by moving the data/process to SaaS products
3. Isolate the app/data by implementing Windows Virtual Desktop (running in Azure) – useful for when you don’t own the endpoint
4. Isolate the data using DLP on Windows, Office, MCAS, and anywhere else (MIP integration)
5. Monitor all user app/data access via Azure AD Auth with MCAS session controls (includes AWS, SaaS, etc)
