Whenever I am dealing with cloud services or remote consultants, the one thing that gives me the greatest pause is keeping track of and protecting credentials. Doing so requires multiple backups, cloud resources, and tested backup and recovery processes.
We have our normal password management processes, password storage tools, and encryption processes. Then disaster strikes. Your servers are hit with ransomware or hacked. A device with critical passwords is stolen. A multi-factor authentication device is lost. All these disasters could cause you or someone in your firm to be less than secure in how they handle the transfer and recovery of servers and key operations. How often do you or your consultants test to see if they can handle the recovery process under stress?
