Description: Secure Configuration refers to the process of adjusting a system or application with the aim of minimizing vulnerabilities and maximizing security. This approach involves implementing various security measures that protect both data and technological infrastructure from potential threats. In general contexts, secure configuration may include disabling unnecessary services, applying security patches, and configuring access policies. In cloud environments, it translates to proper permission management and the use of encryption tools. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) integrates into this process by establishing controls that prevent the leakage of sensitive information. Cloud security posture management involves the continuous assessment of configuration and compliance with regulations. Tools and practices across various systems help ensure that only trusted applications are executed. The Zero Trust approach promotes constant verification of users and devices, while the use of VPN (Virtual Private Network) ensures the privacy and integrity of transmitted information. Together, secure configuration is an essential component for protecting technological infrastructure in an increasingly complex and threatening environment.
