Internal audits can feel like a chore, but separating duties is a real game-changer in fraud prevention. Our team at the training bootcamp sees this firsthand – when one person handles too many financial tasks, mistakes pop up and fraud…
Nobody wants messy fraud scandals. Think of fraud prevention like dealing cards – keep everything split between players. That’s what separation of duties does. We’ve taught hundreds of developers how splitting up tasks between different people (like having one person…
Deployment’s not rocket science – but rushing code straight to production is asking for trouble. Six years teaching dev teams showed us that role separation beats fancy tooling any day. When developers stick to coding, reviewers do their checks, and…
Code security falls apart when teams stretch themselves thin. The dev who wrote the code shouldn’t be the one signing off on it – that’s just asking for trouble. We’ve watched teams crash and burn trying to skip proper reviews.…
Access control can make or break a startup – we’ve seen it happen. Just last month, a dev team lost six months of work when someone had way too much system access. The damage? Nearly $400,000 down the drain. Our…
Nobody likes rules until they save your neck. Segregation of Duties sounds fancy, but it’s really just common sense – don’t let one person control everything. Like how you wouldn’t want your teenage kid to both write and cash their…
Most development teams just hand out access like Halloween candy. There’s a better way: dividing up who’s got the keys to what. A bank’s tech lead shared a story that still makes folks cringe – one person handling both payment…
Splitting up job duties shouldn’t require a stack of paperwork on someone’s desk. Like setting up a guard rail system, separating tasks among different people creates a natural system of watching each other’s backs. We’ve seen this work countless times…
When developers first hear about Separation of Duties, they often think it’s just splitting up tasks between people. It’s way more than that. Our training bootcamp has seen dozens of companies struggle with this concept, mostly because they focus too…
Nobody should hold all the keys to a system. That’s what separation of duties comes down to – splitting up control so there’s always another set of eyes watching. Our students learn this firsthand when they can’t push code straight…
