CLOUD SECURITY
In the pace of digital transformation, migrating from legacy infrastructure to cloud has been the most preferred way to modernize IT infrastructure. As organizations increasingly migrate their workloads and applications to public cloud environments, ensuring robust cloud security has become a critical necessity.
Post the COVID period, the pace of digital transformation has been steady in India as organizations are driving innovation, introducing digital products and services, and automating processes. Migrating from legacy infrastructure to cloud has been the most preferred way to modernize IT infrastructure. Cloud-native development uses advanced technologies such as containerization, microservices, and kubernetes, enabling users to implement flexible, more efficient, and reliable solutions.
As organizations increasingly migrate their workloads and applications to public cloud environments, ensuring robust cloud security has become a critical necessity. Adding the complexity of cloud services, SaaS applications & mobile devices make security and visibility even harder. Hence, securing an organization’s network, data, applications and users has always been an uphill battle for IT.
According to multiple sources, securing workloads, applications, data on public cloud is becoming crucial due to the following reasons:
- Customers' cloud workloads and applications are susceptible to various attacks, including data breaches, unauthorized access, exploiting misconfigurations, and malware injection.
- Multi-Cloud Security: Consistently implementing security controls, policies, and visibility across multiple cloud providers and environments.
- Breaches and malware: Hackers are looking for any vulnerability they can exploit to gain access to a network and its data.
- Insider Threats: Mitigating insider threats from malicious or negligent employees with access to cloud resources and data.
- Lack of Visibility and Control: Gaining comprehensive visibility into cloud assets, configurations, and User activities for effective monitoring and threat detection.
- Data loss: Whether to stop hackers stealing data, employees unintentionally sharing data externally, or malicious insiders willfully taking data to do the company harm.
- Data Security: Ensuring the security and privacy of sensitive data stored in the cloud, including encryption, access controls, and compliance with data protection regulations.
- Misconfiguration Risks: Misconfigured cloud resources, such as storage buckets or databases with public access, can lead to data breaches and security incidents.
- Compliance and Governance: Maintaining compliance with industry regulations and standards, such as HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2, in the cloud environment.
