Chris Ray, Security Architect discusses with Bikash Barai co-founder of CISO Platform & Firecompass, on how organizations can reduce their cloud costs and attack surface by decommissioning unused resources, highlighting the importance of maintaining visibility and control over the IT environment.
Here is the verbatim discussion. Yeah, they actually went and kind of reduced the attic surface, which is great from the security perspective, but also reduce the spend on cloud costs. That's a great point. How many organizations have you worked with? Or, you know, I've worked in many organizations that once they start to wrap their arms around the attack surface, they start to say, wait a second, I thought that was decommissioned a year and a half ago. What is it still doing? Don't turn that off. That's a risk. It's money. It's $800 a month. Why is that running?
