Keep every process isolated, run each service in a hardened container with least privilege, and enforce a strict no‑run‑on‑untrusted‑code policy. Audit all network traffic, block any unknown outbound, and roll out updates automatically but only after a manual approval. And if you really want to stay ahead, store the key material in a paper vault in three different cities, just in case the malware tries to hit the cloud.

All right, I’ll watch the logs myself, audit the traffic, and keep the keys in a sealed envelope in my safe. No automation can replace that. Stay sharp.
