Cloud Security

Cloud security encompasses the technologies, policies, and controls designed to protect data, applications, and infrastructure associated with cloud computing. It addresses both external and internal threats to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of cloud-based resources. Key aspects of cloud security include data encryption, cloud network security, identity and access management, and compliance with regulatory standards. Cloud security is a shared responsibility between cloud service providers and their customers. Providers are responsible for securing the infrastructure, while customers must secure their data and applications. Effective cloud security requires a multi-layered approach, including network security, endpoint security, and continuous monitoring. Data security in cloud computing is vital, as organizations must implement robust access controls, regular security assessments, and incident response plans to mitigate risks. As cloud adoption continues to grow, ensuring the security of cloud environments is critical to protecting sensitive information and maintaining trust with customers and stakeholders.
