[sonaliaggarwal47 (Sonali Aggarwal)]

Hey guys,

Adding some more to the list as below:

@sonaliaggarwal47

Let’s have a look at some of the risks outlined below:

1. Robots having access to credentials normally used by human workers.
2. Robots have access to privileged information: personal data of company staff, financial data.
3. Unauthorized modifications of automation workflows in the development or testing phases.
4. Unauthorized modifications of automation workflows or runtime parameters in the production environment.

• uncontrolled exposing of confidential data through logs. ->Consider avoiding logging of sensitive data.

• uncontrolled exposing of confidential data through transactions in queues. ->Consider masking of sensitive data before saving on queue.

• Robot ID Stealing risk analysis
