SECURITY REVIEW · Workflow idea

Make everyday assistance useful while keeping private data and consequential actions under the person’s control.

For work involving a person’s chosen requests, connected personal information, and proposed account or device actions, confirm permission and check the facts before taking the next step. Prepare a scoped response or proposed next step from information the person chooses to provide. A personal assistant may encounter private messages, account access, or instructions with real-world effects. Obtain clear consent for each data source, use least privilege, protect credentials and retention, verify facts, refuse unsafe or unauthorized requests, and require the person to approve every external message, purchase, deletion, or device change.

A clear request.
A useful direction.

a person’s chosen requests, connected personal information, and proposed account or device actions, an authorized source, and a named owner

    Validate identifiers, versions, timestamps, and affected records against their source.

  3. Protect secrets and sensitive details

    Redact credentials and personal information and restrict access to security findings.

  4. Treat a flag as a prompt to investigate

    Separate observed evidence from an unverified cause, severity, or proposed fix.

  5. Require an authorized owner to act

    Have a qualified lead approve testing, disclosure, access changes, and remediation.

Something to build on.
