I feel like "Scrutinize explicitly" could also fit, but I lean towards A since it directly addresses the idea of internal and external threats.

I practiced a similar question, and I think it was about the importance of not trusting anything by default. That sounds like A to me.

I think the answer is A, "Assume breach." It really emphasizes that threats can come from anywhere, right?

Okay, I think I've got it. The "assume breach" tenet is the one that's based on the idea that there are bad actors both inside and outside the network. That makes sense as a core principle of the zero trust approach.

"Assume breach" is the answer. That tenet is all about recognizing that the network is already compromised, so you have to continuously verify and validate everything, regardless of where the threats are coming from.

Wait, is 'Requiring continuous monitoring' even a real Zero Trust tenet? That sounds like something my grandma would come up with. 'Assume breach' is clearly the way to go.
