"A risk assessment of the Piql Services" by FFI

Most importantly for the data owner, the confidentiality of the information stored on the PiqlFilms was irrevocably compromised, as another actor who absolutely should not have had access to its contents did gain access. The loss of confidentiality may have grave consequences for the data owner, insofar as they are unable to defend themselves during the imminent attack as well as they potentially would have been.

Confidentiality

Immunity (against attacks on the above mentioned)

The Piql Preservation Services is not immune to attacks against confidentiality and availability.

Recommendations

Taking necessary precautions and constantly being alert and aware of potential risks. Ensuring the data is backed-up regularly during a period marked by geopolitical tensions, in case of an imminent attack.

Recommended protective measures
