New cloud resources for a smart-city project sometimes appear with open security groups. What automation pattern best hardens them at birth?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Guard rails are the automatic seatbelts that click on when a new cloud box rolls off the line—secure security groups and policies land without hoping someone remembers later.
Full Explanation
Automation can enforce guard rails and default security group or policy baselines at resource provisioning time. Leaving wide-open rules, delaying controls, or wiki-only documentation fails to prevent insecure-by-default deployments.
