The predecessor lectio is Sensitive Data Management.

Key terms

Cyber-security. The practice and a set of concepts based on that practice that are designed to protect computers, data, and networks from potential attacks or unauthorized access.

Script

Within CNM Cyber, CNM Lab stores the most security-sensitive technical accounts. Protecting user data at CNM Cabin is very important. While protecting CNM Lab, the CNM Cyber Team protects CNM Cabin and all the other CNM Cyber services.
CNM Lab contains every detail of CNM Cloud's architecture and all its private keys that can be used to access CNM Cloud's core.
Cyber criminals can use those details and keys in order to attack CNM Cyber. CNM Lab has to be highly cyber-secure in order to provide CNM Cyber with cyber-security.

What CNM Cloud Is is the successor lectio.
