Welcome back spnfandom8 and SnowyLuna. Thanks for your continued support.
When the whole switcharoo fight subsided and Bruce was speaking to him again he got on that list of weak points in his security.
The key to anything you wish to keep safe is to be aware that there is no such thing as being impenetrable. Eventually, it will be broken through.
Tony blinks. That was... Great to hear. Real inspiring.
Keeping that in mind, the next thing you can do is leave hidden but deliberate openings. That way you know where they will come in from. Erasing any and all possible weaknesses only leave you open to ones you weren't aware of.
Tony didn't like leaving any holes left unfilled but he saw what Bruce was trying to get at. It also made him think about other things he could apply it to.
That can work with my digital safety too huh?
An almost pleased hum answered him,
Yes, with Intel you want to be protected you leave dummy files and information you are comfortable with remaining within access. You need to make it seem protected and a challenge to get so they aren't going to try and snoop further realizing the trap. Keep only the utmost important fully guarded, normally the false and pre-picked files are as far as most get.
Was that a whole paragraph he spoke? Guess this was important to Bruce for Tony to understand. There was a passion in his words and a graveness that said just how many times someone hacked his own stuff.
Your database is already secured past most skill's capabilities but eventually, someone will break past it. This will at best ensure no one gets anything you can afford to lose.
Tony preened at the compliment, dry as it was. Folding his arms in thought, he was used to making invincible walls and nigh impossible to so much as dent cyber shields that while he had traps and top line anti-hacker and spyware he was dealing with Spies now, Spies that got past JARVIS once before.
The only ones capable of getting into his workshop were Pepper and Rhodey. Even then he was debating adding more fail-safes. Tony was already set to completely overhaul JARVIS's inner system leaving only the AI's data that made him him alone, Tony went over Bruce's list of physical security breaches. Some he could fix, now to strengthen what he could while leaving enough room for specialized openings. Like steering a mouse through a maze with a morsel of cheese.
Notes: Not too sure about this chapter. Sadly I am no technical genius or master detective. Oh well.
