Understanding Least Privilege

The idea that the principle of least privilege requires that a user or process be given no more privilege than necessary to perform a job makes a lot of sense in this hostile digital divide we live in. Least privilege has become a passion of mine, and its reflected in everything that I design now adays. Which is why Carina works so well in the face of hostile and malicious code.

In today's show I talk about the security principle of least privilege, how we use it to protect our customer's information... and how you can use it to protect your desktops.

For more information about least privilege please check out some of these links:

After listening to customer feedback, we are going to try a new format with this podcast. We will keep these single topic recordings short (somewhere around 5 minutes) so that people with busy schedules can still get a chance to listen to it. We will leave longer shows for more in depth interviews etc. Please let me know if you like the new format.

Think strategically. Protect your information. Enjoy!
