'''Gartner’s CARTA Framework''' aka '''Continuous Adaptive Risk and Trust Assessment (CARTA)''' is a strategic approach to IT security that favors continuous cybersecurity assessments and contextual decision-making based on adaptive evaluations of risk and trust. CARTA was introduced by Gartner in 2010 as an evolution of its [[Adaptive Security Architecture (ASA)|Adaptive Security Architecture]].

 *Planning for no-agent and no-MDM on devices – Being able to deliver user-centric security when there is no agent on the device is difficult. Users working on any number of devices must have the flexibility to connect over a browser, instead, and go agentless. This is especially important when partners need to access private apps.
 *Performing risk assessment on an ongoing basis – Security can no longer be a one-and-done mindset. Teams should adopt technologies that adapt to the user and the changing context in which they access business services. Adopting modern, cloud-first technologies that integrate well together across users, devices, logging, and connectivity is a must.

		+	The CARTA framework is focused on standardizing agility, enabling contextual awareness, and leveraging adaptive security technologies. It enables organizations to strengthen security and leverage automation for continuous improvement.

	The CARTA strategy is designed for continuous adaptation that goes beyond basic allow or deny models to provide contextually relevant access. By operating with context as a guide, CARTA can reduce bottlenecks, maximize system efficiency, improve workflow agility and improve user experiences. It enables granular access control beyond what standard IAM procedures are capable of and allows IT teams to manage networks without the constant burden of manual monitoring.

		+	'''The CARTA Approach<ref>The CARTA Approach [https://www.balbix.com/insights/gartners-carta-framework/]</ref>'''<br />
		+	The CARTA strategic approach stipulates that effective risk and cybersecurity management require:
		+	*100% device visibility and automated control
		+	*Continuous monitoring, assessment, and remediation of cyber and operational risk
		+	*Micro-segmentation to contain breaches and limit lateral movement/damage
		+	*Technologies and products from multiple vendors
		+	*New levels of multivendor orchestration and process/response automation
		+	*Discovery, posture assessment, and remediation/control of physical and virtual devices as well as cloud infrastructure and workloads
		+	*Effective security management of agentless IoT devices and cyber-physical OT systems
		+

		+	'''The Need for CARTA<ref>Why CARTA [https://www.forescout.com/blog/a-primer-on-gartners-carta-strategic-approach/]</ref>'''<br />
		+	Given the relentless pace of investment in security tools over the past decade, you may wonder why enterprises and government organizations haven’t solved all of their security problems and still need such an all-encompassing security framework. But let’s face it: Cybercriminals these days are wildly successful. The status quo simply isn’t working. Previously effective security and risk management approaches are unsuitable for rapid changes brought about by IP-connected data sharing and digital transformation. Some of these changes include:
		+	*Hypergrowth of non-traditional devices and OSes—most of which are agentless
		+	*Perimeter defenses no longer work—physical vendor access, phishing, and insider credential abuse circumvent the perimeter every day
		+	*Corporate device ownership has become irrelevant thanks to mobile computing, BYOD, and IoT/OT devices showing up constantly on enterprise networks
		+	*Point-in-time scans are old news—asset inventory and vulnerability assessment must occur continuously in real time
		+	*Security silos add inefficiency and delays—too many tools to learn and use and too many manual processes to keep pace with growth and unyielding pressure from hackers
		+	*One-time block/allow authentication methods miss the mark while impeding access to legitimate users
