Protecting Cloud Accounts

Review approved sign-in routes, authentication methods and recovery contacts. Identify unexpected prompts and requests for access that should be reported before approval.

Files, Links and External Collaboration

Check the intended recipient, permission and access period for a shared document. Work through public links, forwarded invitations and files copied to personal accounts.

Lunch

Apps and Connected Services

Review a fictional application requesting access to organisational files. Ask what it needs, who approved it and how access can be removed. Route technical configuration questions to the service owner.

Data Handling and Incident Escalation

Identify where a sensitive record may be stored or shared under company policy. Practise reporting accidental exposure, lost access and an unfamiliar account activity notice with useful context.

Practical Exercise: A Shared Project Workspace

Set out the access and handling rules for a fictional project involving staff and an external supplier. Review a risky link and an app connection, then draft an action and escalation record.
