Security at the Core: Unraveling Secure by Design Principles
- 1. Security at the Core: Unraveling Secure by Design Principles Principles of Secure by Design: Layered Defense: Implementing multiple layers of security measures to create a defense-in-depth strategy, preventing single-point failures. Least Privilege: Providing minimal access rights necessary for tasks, reducing the potential impact of breaches or insider threats. Default Secure Configurations: Employing secure default settings for systems or devices to prevent vulnerabilities right from installation. Continuous Updates and Patching: Regularly updating software, firmware, and systems to address security flaws and vulnerabilities. Data Minimization: Collecting and storing only necessary data, reducing the impact of breaches and protecting user privacy. Resilience and Redundancy: Building systems resilient to failure, incorporating redundancy for critical functions to maintain operations. Secure Authentication and Authorization: Implementing robust authentication methods and access controls to prevent unauthorized access. User Awareness and Training: Educating users on security practices, fostering a security-conscious culture within organizations. Monitoring and Incident Response: Proactive monitoring for anomalies and swift incident response to mitigate threats effectively. Testing and Validation: Thoroughly testing systems and products for security vulnerabilities, ensuring robustness before deployment. Secure by Design stands as a fundamental approach in building robust security from the ground up. These principles form the cornerstone of creating systems and products resilient to cyber threats. www.centextech.com Centex Technologies 13355 Noel Road, Suite #1100 Dallas, TX 75240 Phone: (972) 375 - 9654 501 N. 4th Street, Killeen, TX 76541 Phone: (254) 213 - 4740 1201 Peachtree ST NE, 400 Colony Square #200 Atlanta, GA 30361 Phone: (404) 994 - 5074 Capital Factory, 701 BrazosStreet, Suite 500 Austin, TX 78701 Phone: (512) 956 - 5454
