Where did the term come from? The phrase “cybersecurity mesh architecture” was coined by Gartner, a leading research and advisory company, in their report “The Future of Network Security Is in the Cloud” in December 2019. In this report, Gartner introduced the concept of a cybersecurity mesh architecture as a new approach to network security that is more flexible, scalable and resilient than traditional perimeter-based security models. Since then, the concept of cybersecurity mesh architecture has gained traction and has been adopted by many organizations as a key element of their cybersecurity strategy.

According to Gartner, cybersecurity mesh architecture is a response to the increasing complexity of modern IT environments and the need for a more flexible and dynamic approach to cybersecurity. Gartner describes cybersecurity mesh architecture as a model that “enables the distribution of security capabilities across a variety of devices and systems, allowing security to be delivered where it is needed most.” They highlight the benefits of this approach, including enhanced resilience, improved visibility and simplified management. Gartner also notes that cybersecurity mesh architecture is not a replacement for traditional perimeter-based security models but rather a complementary approach. They recommend that organizations consider implementing cybersecurity mesh architecture as part of a broader security strategy, leveraging it to improve their overall security posture.
