None
None
PART OF THE PROBLEM
93% organiza=ons use poor quality, shared passwords and do
not change them when people leave
80% organiza=ons use produc=on data in test environments
We don’t understand our own environments and technology suites
None
PART OF THE SOLUTION
SORT OUT THE BASICS. NO EXCUSES PASSWORD MANAGEMENT BACKUPS
ROLES PERMISSIONS LANGUAGE PROTECTING PRODUCTION DATA
DATA IS A PRIVILEGE … store less
WORDS ARE EXPENSIVE say less, communicate more
YOU CANNOT REMOVE RISK by making things more complex
EXPOSE YOUR VULNERABILITY focus on visibility and survival
EVERYBODY EDUCATED EMPOWERED ACCOUNTABLE
we live in a connected world
None
go protect it together
