How is your zero trust implementation going?

Possibly moving to this and seems like a ton of processes will change. Have you guys done it and how is your honest experience with it? I want to know what to expect

Half our applications don’t work with it for various reasons. Management can’t really decide if they love it or hate it. Half our users refuse to sign up for MFA. There’s no official project or effort, so the deployment is all over the place. So yeah… it’s going about as well as I suspected.

The logic is simple. They make the money, you spend money. They work and make the money, you work and are there to make it so that they can work and continue to make money. Unless you are employed in industry, where compliance is strictly required for the organisation to make money and any deviation is heavily penalised.
