Design Principles
The connector follows least-privilege behavior and avoids unnecessary host-level surface area.
Operations are limited to required sync functions and status heartbeats.
Operational Controls
For external access scenarios, controlled networking is essential. VPN-first access remains the recommended production posture.
- Read-only source interaction
- Encrypted transport channels
- Controlled endpoint communication
- Firewall and network policy recommendations
Incident Readiness
Teams should maintain basic runbooks for connectivity incidents and credential rotation.
Preventive controls and observability are more effective than reactive troubleshooting.
