Metrics Dashboards Are Often Public by Accident
Grafana, Kibana, Prometheus — many get deployed with default settings. These dashboards expose internal service names, credentials, and traffic patterns to anyone with a browser.

Observability Must Be Secured Like Production
Monitoring stacks often sit unprotected, with admin interfaces exposed. If attackers get in, they gain a map of your entire infrastructure — and the means to stay hidden.
