Brutalist Security Principles

Simplicity and Directness – Security controls and processes are designed to be straightforward, functional, and minimalistic, avoiding unnecessary complexity or flashy features. This often means using robust, proven methods rather than relying on overly intricate or trendy security solutions.

Resilience Through Toughness – The focus is on building systems that can endure and resist attacks, often through redundancy, fail-safes, and security measures that may seem "overbuilt" but ensure they are difficult to breach or bypass.

Uncompromising Transparency – Security systems, configuration, and architecture are designed in a way that they are unambiguous and easy to audit. There’s no attempt to hide or obfuscate anything, allowing for clear visibility and accountability, making it easier to identify and address vulnerabilities.
