In this brief excerpt, the speaker argues that vendor‑managed cloud “zero‑trust” solutions are not true zero‑trust implementations. Because the customer has no ability to configure or change the security controls, the model becomes an “all‑in‑trust” or “nanny security” approach, where the vendor retains full control. The speaker labels this mischaracterisation and suggests the terminology is misleading.

But the truth is, yes, you might be okay with some of the tools they use for cloud, but the entire concept of it being zero trust, when you are actually going to a vendor where you have zero ability to change or configure or do anything, it's completely out of your hands. I don't know, I mean, that's not zero trust. That's all in trust. That is take care of me. That is, you know, that should be called nanny security, if anything, you know?
