How do you avoid hidden fees in cloud project budgets?

How can you prevent common cloud security threats?
Assess the current capabilities and implement Zero Trust Architecture starting with core pillars of Identity; Devices; Network, Data, and Applications and Workloads security. It's paramount to standardize and automate as much as possible to avoid attacks.

How do you deal with conflicting or changing requirements in your EA trade-offs?
I disagree with this blank and bland statement "Monitor and adapt to changes". Depending on the size and maturity of organization, changes should be introduced in phased fashion. Crawl, walk and then run. Can not force entire organization to use a new CRM tool that uproots the workflow of efficient sales team as an example. It's even more important in case of external facing changes Here's what I've had success with in past : Have a change management strategy and feedback loop that is time bound towards a change objective.e.g. identify beach head internal 'customers', create and introduce small non-intrusive changes , gather feedback , improve strategy / execution , update change success metrics accordingly. Be agile.

How do you deal with conflicting or changing requirements in your EA trade-offs?
While these are theoretically true , something that I've seen in past life is that organizations can get stuck in analysis / paralysis while looking at myriad of factors and drivers. In practice , it boils down to making quicker decisions and learning from mistakes. In that regard assessing and quantifying risk is paramount . A good way of assessing it is understanding the impact. As they say Risk is Probability times the Impact. Have an exercise on the impact and probabilities of tradeoffs, stack rank them and assign a weightage. That becomes more pragmatic. Understanding the trade-offs , assigning a risk weightage can help organizations converge quickly into decision making phase
