The Zero Trust Industries framework acknowledges that while Zero Trust principles — verify explicitly, use least privilege, assume breach — are universal, their implementation varies significantly by sector because of differing regulatory obligations, operational technology profiles, and threat landscapes. A vendor that can speak fluently to the Zero Trust application in a target industry — referencing the right compliance frameworks, known threat actors, and sector-specific architecture patterns — closes enterprise deals faster than one offering a generic security pitch.
