If you're considering repurposing older equipment for non-critical functions or using it in a layered security model, ensure it still receives vendor support and regular security updates. While repurposing may seem to enhance security by adding depth, unsupported devices that don't work with modern security solutions (like encryption or advanced authentication) can instead increase your attack surface. This happens by introducing more endpoints that could have weaker protections. Additionally, older equipment often doesn't integrate well with newer systems or cloud environments, leading to potential security gaps. Remember, even non-critical systems can be exploited as entry points into your network, so their security is just as important.

Para mantener la seguridad de la red con recursos limitados, reutilizo equipos antiguos para tareas menos críticas, implemento soluciones de seguridad de código abierto y aseguro la capacitación continua del personal para minimizar errores humanos. También aplico una estrategia de defensa en capas, optimizando la configuración existente y automatizando tareas repetitivas para maximizar la eficiencia y protección sin incurrir en altos costos

(edited)A resposta que vejo próximo ao ideal é Priorização e segmentação. Por quê? Concentre-se nas vulnerabilidades mais críticas que podem ter um impacto significativo na segurança da rede. Use ferramentas de gerenciamento de vulnerabilidades para identificar os pontos mais vulneráveis e priorize os patches que tratam dessas falhas críticas. Divida a rede em segmentos para limitar o acesso e o movimento lateral de ameaças dentro da rede. Mesmo se um dispositivo vulnerável for comprometido, a segmentação dificulta que o atacante se mova para outras partes da rede. :)
