The Ultimate Guide to Cloud Security
2024 edition
Overview
Those using cloud computing services of any kind generally do so with an expectation of reliability, dependability and security. Cloud security is the component of the cybersecurity industry concerned with securing these services from malware and ‘bad actors’. Cloud Security is an umbrella term and covers everything from policies, technologies, products, services, controls and procedures employed in the protection of cloud services, which can include applications, infrastructure, storage or any other combination of internet-accessible resources.
