Lesson 10 Foundations: Network, Cloud, Crypto & Supply Chain

Homework — Lesson 10

Two tasks · ~30 minutes · Applied to your own organisation

Task 1 — Find your implicit trust

For your own organisation, list where you still rely on implicit trust: a flat network, over-broad access, or a cloud responsibility no one owns. Choose one improvement per pillar (zero trust, cloud).

✓ Self-check: you can name at least one concrete implicit-trust gap and one cloud-configuration owner question you cannot currently answer.

Task 2 — Long-lived secrets & suppliers

List the data you must keep confidential for many years (your harvest-now-decrypt-later exposure) and your top three suppliers with the access each holds.

✓ Self-check: you have a named long-lived-secret category and, for each top supplier, a statement of what they can reach.

Task 3 (optional) — One question to ask

Write the single foundations question you will put to your technology leadership this month (e.g., about cloud baselines, key management, or supplier access).

✓ Self-check: your question forces an evidence-based answer, not a yes/no reassurance.
