BDR and Security Best Practices NOT followed in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is an international hit, grossing over 357 million worldwide in its first week and breaking the mold for the sci-fi space opera franchise.
The untold story of the crack team of rebel commandos who steal the plans to the galaxy’s ultimate weapon—the Death Star—is being praised by audiences and critics alike for its innovative approach and its fearless direction.
After multiple viewings, when one has taken into account the new characters, impressive score and the overall thrust of the plot, it’s possible to relax a bit and think of other interesting concepts in Rogue One.
From the perspective of an MSP, it’s interesting to think of the loss of the Death Star plans as a major data loss event for the Empire—essentially, a large scale organization with multiple (trillions?) of endpoints—and how their in-house processes failed.
If only they had an MSP who could act as a galactic vCIO to provide up-to-date knowledge and expertise, the Empire may have withstood their security breach with their plans safeguarded and intact.
