Episode 26 — Protect training and test data with access control and secure storage (Task 14)
This episode explains how to protect training and test data so confidentiality and compliance are preserved, and why AAISM questions often focus on access control and storage choices as the most defensible first steps. You will learn to apply least privilege to datasets, enforce separation between environments, use strong identity and authentication for pipelines and analysts, and ensure storage configurations support encryption, auditing, and controlled sharing. We walk through scenarios such as a shared bucket used by multiple teams or a vendor-hosted training environment, highlighting how access design decisions affect both security and audit evidence. Troubleshooting focuses on common weaknesses like broad group permissions, unmanaged copies of datasets, missing access logs, and test data that accidentally includes production-sensitive records.
