In this episode, we are back with our Security Design Principles series, this time discussing Compromise.

In the constantly evolving tech world, we are constantly bombarded with new products, updates, and software changes. To navigate through this ever-changing landscape, we require a foundation of stability. This is precisely where the Security Design Principles step in.

In simple words, Compromise Recording simply refers to the logging and alerting. If you are familiar with the three As of security - Authorization, Authentication, and Accounting, Compromise Recording refers to the Accounting part of security.

It is important to note that you can log all the details and events you want, but if you are not looking at those logs and analyzing through them, they are just a waste of storage space. You also must make sure that you are logging the important data, not just burying yourself in a mountain of data. Finding that balance of what to log and how much to log is crucial for your work as a cybersecurity practitioner.

This is how you can utilize the Security Design Principles to effectively analyze a new product. By doing this, you will fully understand how it works and make sure you have a good understanding of your organization's security.
