Shared Resources

People, environments, or equipment that multiple Scrum Teams rely on within the same project. On larger initiatives these assets are often constrained, and several teams may need them at the same time, creating scheduling and dependency challenges.

Key Points

  • Includes personnel (e.g., UX, DevOps), environments (labs, test beds), and tools or equipment used by more than one team.
  • Scarcity can create queues, delays, and cross-team dependencies that impact sprint goals.
  • Access should be planned and made transparent with calendars, booking policies, and clear priorities.
  • Chronic bottlenecks may require adding capacity, creating replicas, or dedicating the resource to reduce contention.

Example

Five Scrum Teams work on a large product. There is only one performance testing environment and a single security specialist. Teams reserve time on a shared calendar. When two teams need the lab in the same sprint, Product Owners coordinate priorities and one team adjusts its sprint plan while the other proceeds, reducing idle time and ensuring fair access.

PMP Example Question

In a scaled agile program, three Scrum Teams need the only UX designer and the same test environment during the current sprint. What is this situation an example of?

  1. Shared resources
  2. Dedicated teams
  3. Rolling wave planning
  4. Definition of Done

Correct Answer: A — Shared resources

Explanation: Multiple teams are competing for the same people and environments, which characterizes shared resources; the other options do not describe resource contention.

ICS/OT Cybersecurity Fundamentals — Security Built for Industrial Systems

Industrial control systems cannot be secured like ordinary IT. A forced reboot, aggressive scan, or incompatible patch can interrupt production and create real safety consequences. Effective OT security begins with understanding the systems, constraints, and risks unique to industrial environments.

This course gives IT professionals, engineers, operators, and security practitioners a practical foundation in ICS threats, zone and conduit design, risk assessment, passive asset visibility, and vendor evaluation. You will learn how IEC 62443, NIST CSF, and MITRE ATT&CK for ICS apply where availability and safety come first.

Eight reconstructed incidents—including Stuxnet, Triton, Ukraine 2015, Colonial Pipeline, and PIPEDREAM—show how attackers move through OT environments, what they target, and which defenses could have changed the outcome.

Watch the course preview, then build the vocabulary, frameworks, and judgment needed to take credible first steps in ICS/OT cybersecurity.
