What to consider: Security, Identity & Compliance

  • Grant the least privilege needed and prefer roles or service accounts over long-lived keys.
  • Turn on multi-factor authentication for every administrator account.
  • Enable audit logs and threat detection from day one; they are hard to reconstruct after an incident.
