Redundancy Security

Definitions

1. The security and reliability considerations around redundant systems, links, or components designed to keep services running during failures or attacks. Redundant infrastructure improves availability only if backup paths are also hardened, monitored, and protected from shared points of failure.

   In plain English: Making sure backup systems and failover paths are also secure and reliable.

   Example: "The failover architecture looked good on paper, but redundancy security was weak because both paths depended on the same exposed identity provider."
