Introduction The cyber security landscape is evolving at breakneck speed, rendering traditional defense mechanisms inadequate. Advanced cyber threats now move laterally within networks with alarming ease, exploiting vulnerabilities that traditional perimeter defenses cannot fully address. The rise of remote work and increased mobility has dissolved the traditional network boundary, necessitating security measures that function effectively regardless of location. Simultaneously, the widespread adoption of cloud services has dispersed resources beyond the reach of conventional perimeter-based security, creating new challenges for data protection. Moreover, the threat landscape is further complicated by: Insider risks, both malicious and accidental, which demand stricter access controls [
