Planning details

Security details to keep visible

Many security problems come from outdated software, broad permissions, weak process, and poor visibility into changes.

  • Remove unused admin accounts and unnecessary permissions
  • Keep platform, plugin, extension, and dependency updates planned
  • Avoid exposing credentials in code, emails, or shared documents
  • Use backups and monitoring as part of the security posture
