Risk Management starts with identifying/valuating your assets.  \n• Human life is always \\#1 priority.  \n• Security should be “baked in”, rather than “bolted on”.  \n• Layered defense!  \n• People are your weakest link.  \n• Always think about the overall risk and remediation steps for each technology, tools, components or solution.  \n• Think security? Think about CIA.  \n• Behave ethically.  \n• All controls must be cost justified (safeguards)  \n• Senior management must drive the security program (business proposal, positive ROI) .  \nPage 5  \nNote From The Author  \nI would like to thank Radha Arora for drafting and reviewing the  \ndocument with me to make it a better version. I would also like to thank Luke Ahmed for allowing me to release the document on his CISSP platform and for assisting me in compiling it to produce a distributable format.  \nThe Memory Palace  \n\"It's a memory technique. A sort of mental map. You plot a map with a location. It doesn't have to be a real place. And then you deposit memories there. That, theoretically, you can never forget anything.
