What repeatedly goes wrong.

NO BUDGET ALERTS

Discovering consumption through the bill.

UNRESTRICTED API KEYS

Scraped and used by others, at your cost.

SERVICE ACCOUNT KEYS DISTRIBUTED

Which leak, and grant everything that account can do.

SECURITY RULES LEFT OPEN FROM DEVELOPMENT

Exposing the entire database.

STORAGE BUCKETS PUBLICLY READABLE

Which is actively scanned for.

BASIC ROLES ASSIGNED BROADLY

Granting far more than any task requires.

PROJECTS CREATED UNDER PERSONAL ACCOUNTS

Lost when that person leaves.

QUERIES SCANNING ENTIRE LARGE TABLES

Billed by data processed, every time they run.

ENDPOINTS AND RESOURCES LEFT DEPLOYED

Billed whether used or not.

LISTENERS NEVER DETACHED IN CLIENT APPLICATIONS

Consuming reads continuously across every installation.

AUTOCOMPLETE WITHOUT SESSION TOKENS

Billing every keystroke.

NO MAXIMUM INSTANCE LIMIT

Scaling without bound on a traffic spike or a loop.

WHAT PREVENTS MOST OF THESE

Budgets and quotas set before building, keys and roles restricted from the start, and consumption monitored after every release.
