Choose an important Security control in your environment and consider what would happen if it stopped providing protection tomorrow. You don’t need an elaborate tabletop exercise. Follow the likely attack path and identify the next independent control that would prevent, detect, or contain the activity.
If you can’t identify one, you may have found a single point of failure worth addressing.
π This Week’s Outlook in a Shareable Statement
Layered Security works best when we stop thinking of it as a collection of products and start thinking of it as an engineering decision. Individual controls will occasionally fail. The architecture should be designed so that one failure doesn’t decide the outcome.
