About This Architecture

AWS Hybrid Zero Trust Architecture implements defense-in-depth across identity, perimeter, policy, and data layers using Okta/Azure AD, CloudFront, WAF, and IAM Identity Center. Traffic flows through MFA-enforced identity verification, device trust validation, and policy decision points before reaching application tiers spanning EC2, ECS Fargate, and Lambda across multi-AZ VPCs. This architecture eliminates implicit trust, enforcing least-privilege access and continuous verification for hybrid workloads. Fork and customize this diagram on Diagrams.so to model your organization's zero-trust posture, then export as .drawio or .svg for security documentation. The design pairs AWS native services (CloudTrail, GuardDuty, Security Hub) with third-party identity providers to achieve compliance-ready threat detection and audit logging.

How do I implement a zero-trust architecture on AWS with identity verification, device trust, and policy enforcement?

This diagram shows a complete AWS zero-trust design layering identity providers (Okta/Azure AD), device trust validation, policy decision/enforcement points, and multi-AZ application infrastructure with CloudFront, WAF, and IAM Identity Center. Each request is verified at identity, perimeter, and policy layers before reaching EC2, ECS, or Lambda workloads, with continuous audit via CloudTrail and
