Exploring the Risks of Read-Only Access in the Cloud

My career began with read-only access. In my first job, I worked night shifts in a data operations center. Our team handled incidents identified either by monitoring or from end customers. This meant I often had to perform first, second and third-line troubleshooting. If we couldn’t identify and resolve the issue, our only option was to wake up a rather exhausted escalation engineer.

Moving Beyond the Cyber Risk Matrix With Defensible CRQ Data

‍ The use of risk matrices for decision-making purposes extends back to the 1980s when the US Department of Defense needed a quick and easy way to evaluate hazards in safety systems engineering. Since then, the matrix has been applied in multiple fields to assess potential results and their associated risks, emerging as an instrumental tool for organizations grappling with making high-level strategic investments. ‍

Software Liability Explained

Software liability is an increasingly important area for every software development company and team. At its core, software liability is about protecting users from damages caused by software issues. As more software is in use than ever before, there’s a lot of ways that software — and its manufacturers — could be held responsible for certain actions or inactions. Indeed, even the rise of cyber insecurity globally could fall into this murky area.

They can access specific policies you've set and sometimes identify what kind of software you use to run your system. Sometimes, that's okay. Other times, the information exposed in your server header can lead directly to a malicious cyber attack.
