Cybersecurity design is based on ZTF, in which all resources are blocked by default, and only by correctly meeting the policy requirements is any access permitted by unlocking the resource in a step-by-step fashion. DevOps places the operational support model at the heart of the solution, allowing for real-time updates to software at any time. Blending these models allows for a future-focused solution that is as easy to maintain as possible.

Design theory will continue to evolve. Leveraging a philosophy around DevOps with a grounding in ZTF brings you closer to this. An SDN mechanism to leverage...
