We need to prioritize implementing Single Sign-On (SSO) for all admin accounts immediately, as this will significantly strengthen our foundation in identity and access management. This is a non-negotiable, as it directly impacts our overall security posture and reduces the attack surface. I want the identity and access management team to work closely with developers to ensure a seamless integration, with a target completion date of two weeks prior to our first enterprise security review. This will require some upfront effort, but it's essential we get this right, as it will pay dividends in the long run by reducing the risk of lateral movement in the event of a breach. By doing this, we'll also be able to better track and manage access, which will help us identify and eliminate orphaned accounts and overpermissioned roles. Let's make this happen, as it's a critical step in building a robust security foundation.

Active guardrail (hard): Critical CVEs: patched or mitigated within 72 hours of disclosure. High: within 14 days. Medium: within 30 days. No exceptions without a documented compensating control and a signed risk acceptance. Unpatched criticals in the critical path are a hard block on production deploys.

Validated pain: Pre-PMF Generalization (prioritization, high cost). Symptom: low sprint velocity; infrastructure dominates roadmap; no retained users after months of work
