RPA Security: Testing Robotic Process Automation for Credential Exposure and Logic Abuse — 中国企业指南

RPA bots operate with stored credentials and access sensitive systems. Security testing for credential storage, access scope, and logic manipulation. Guidance for ZH market.

Robotic Process Automation bots operate with stored credentials, accessing sensitive systems and processing confidential data — often with broader permissions than any human user. Security testing covers: how are bot credentials stored and rotated? Can bot logic be manipulated to perform unintended actions? Are bot activities properly logged and monitored? Do bots have minimum necessary access, or do they accumulate permissions over time? And can a compromised bot be used to pivot to connected systems?
