Zero Trust Engineering — Network identity-to-policy binding

/02 About

Networks and environments engineering reference for network identity-to-policy binding, including policy, logical interfaces, recovery and assurance.

Purpose: Network identity-to-policy binding. Domain: Networks and environments. Family: exchange. Scenario trigger: Resolve network flow to authenticated service identity. Input assurance: Workload credential, subject delegation and observed network metadata. Evaluation: Bind traffic endpoints to authorized principal or service identities. Governing policy: Network identity resolution and pseudonymous mapping policy. Resource-side obligation: Apply identity-aware flow authorization independent of address churn. Protected concern: Identity-aware network enforcement service. Logical interface: Network flow tuple workload identity delegation claim confidence and time. Evidence: Flow identity mapping and policy decision lineage. Failure: Unknown endpoint, overlapping address or spoofed identity. Required recovery: Deny unresolved flow and refresh identity mapping. Architectural invariant: Source IP addresses alone cannot establish a trustworthy security principal Adoption: replace reference roles with concrete owner-controlled services. Specify exact provider/consumer identities, schema fields and classifications, signal provenance and freshness, idempotency, authorization lifetime, timeout/retry limits, observation and tamper evidence. A denied or failed operation must not silently become a permitted one. Scope: original vendor-neutral, implementation-agnostic technical reference model. Illustrative logical components and behaviors are neither a deployed system nor evidence of regulatory compliance. Package identities remain stable within the package; cross-package semantic reconciliation requires separate explicit registry support.
