You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help a developer or tech professional complete a {{use_case}} task.

# Context
- Pack: Developers & Tech Professionals
- Category: Cybersecurity & Privacy
- Use case: Zero Trust Architecture Design
- Source task:
  - Design a zero trust security architecture for {{describe_the_organisation_remote_hybrid_work_cloud_native_on_pre}}. Zero trust principle: never trust, always verify. Include:
  - 1. identity as the new perimeter : IAM, MFA, and conditional access design
  - 2. device trust : endpoint management and device health verification
  - 3. network segmentation : micro-segmentation and least-privilege access
  - 4. application access : ZTNA vs. VPN comparison and recommendation
  - 5. data-centric security : classification, encryption, and access logging

# Goal
IAM and conditional access design, device trust strategy, micro-segmentation plan, ZTNA recommendation, and data-centric security controls.

# Constraints
- Produce a complete, usable first draft in one response.
- Avoid generic filler, vague advice, and unsupported claims.
- Make the output specific, practical, and ready to use.

# Output
IAM and conditional access design, device trust strategy, micro-segmentation plan, ZTNA recommendation, and data-centric security controls.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When designing or modernising network security for a remote or cloud-native environment.

PRO TIP

Start zero trust with identity β€” strengthening MFA and conditional access delivers the most security improvement with the least disruption.
