Why Security Should Be a Dedicated Oracle Cloud Workstream
Treating Security as a Technical Task Is One of the Biggest Risks in an Oracle Cloud Programme
Every Oracle Cloud implementation begins with a familiar set of workstreams.
- Finance.
- Procurement.
- Supply Chain.
- Data Migration.
- Integration.
- Testing.
- Change Management.
- Project Management.
Each has defined deliverables, governance, workshops and dedicated resources.
Yet one workstream is often missing.
- Security.
Instead of being recognised as a business-critical discipline, security is frequently treated as a technical activity that can be completed towards the end of the implementation.
- Roles are configured.
- Users are provisioned.
- Testing is completed.
- The project goes live.
By then, many of the most important security decisions have already been made, without a structured governance framework to support them.
