Welp, it’s time to add to my ongoing list of things currently occurring in the US federal government that would get me, a privacy practitioner, immediately fired if I did them:

New:
-Using non-approved apps to transmit sensitive information
-sending sensitive information without double-checking recipient list
-setting records to auto-delete in contravention of records retention policy

Previously:
-Connecting an unknown external server to the network
-data access without background check
-ignoring least necessary access principles 
-admin access without any controls
-improper segmentation/separation of duties 
-coding directly on prod
-data to 3rd party tools without due diligence
-Delete security documentation because it contains “forbidden words” used in other contexts

For Pete's Sake!

@nixCraft I'm senior dev on my project. I've 30+ years in the industry and looking after a bunch of fresh graduate developers.

I spend my days cleaning up AI slop from their code #facepalm

I recently had one developer "fix" a non fatal error filling up the log files... .... by commenting out the line that wrote to the logs.

I yearn for my retirement in 10 years.
