NeverTrust™ vs Zero Trust
Protecting Defence Systems without Compromising Security
Many defence organisations depend on ageing legacy systems for mission-critical functions such as command-and-control and intelligence platforms. Droplet NeverTrust™ containers provide a secure, compliant and cost-effective route to modernise these systems while maintaining operational resilience, seamless interoperability and alignment with the latest defence cyber-security standards.
What sets our NeverTrust™ containers apart is our delivery model.
