Kingdom: Encapsulation
Encapsulation is about drawing strong boundaries. In a web browser that might mean ensuring that your mobile code cannot be abused by other mobile code. On the server it might mean differentiation between validated data and unvalidated data, between one user's data and another's, or between data users are allowed to see and data that they are not.
AWS Ansible Misconfiguration: Insecure RDS Storage
Abstract
The template defines an Amazon RDS instance with no encryption.
Explanation
By default, Amazon RDS instances are not encrypted. This exposes the data to potential theft and unauthorized access.
