As systems scale and platforms continue to grow, how do you keep up with the growing requirements to secure these transactions and the networks they are built upon? Facebook chose to address the problem early in the development stages (as best practice dictates) by developing an open-source tool called HACK. Google has taken a similar approach by not just looking for point solutions to add to its arsenal to fix a problem, but by changing the very architecture it relies on to build its environment. Google s infrastructure has been purposefully designed with security in mind; not added later as an afterthought.
