Suggested Answer: A

The Zero Trust framework dictates that 'trust' is never granted implicitly but is instead based on identity and context. ClearPass provides this by moving security away from static IP/VLAN-based rules to Dynamic Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). By integrating profiling (to identify what the device is) with authentication (to identify who the user is), ClearPass assigns a 'Role.' This role stays with the user/device regardless of where or how they connect, ensuring a consistent security posture across legacy and modern infrastructure.
