I've said it before, but Zero Trust is such a misnomer. It implies less trust in firewalls, VPNs, and other network controls, but much more trust in the ability of end-user devices to securely store and use private keys. Also, the server side has has to trust all incoming connections from the Internet enough to verify the certificates, and run a complicated TLS implementation, which can be a huge attack surface. We're sticking with WireGuard for all our internal users.

Unless you're storing your wireguard keys in your TPM somehow, what stops malware from just copying the keys out and connecting? Are you IP whitelisting every employee's house or what?

Wireguard solves the data in motion problem but not the data at rest problem, doesn’t it?
