Whitelisting IPs bypasses all other security checks implemented by Zero Trust. If a whitelisted IP address is compromised, attackers can access your application without authentication. Therefore, only whitelist trusted and well-managed IPs. Consider using more granular access control methods like user-based authentication and device posture whenever possible to reduce the attack surface.
