Cloud security is a collection of security measures designed to protect cloud-based infrastructure, applications and data.
Cloud security measures ensure user and device authentication, data and resource access control, and data privacy protection. Cloud security measures also support regulatory data compliance.
Cloud security is employed in cloud environments to protect a company’s data from distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, malware, hackers, and unauthorized user access or use.
Cloud security is critical since most organizations are already using cloud computing in one form or another. In fact, the worldwide market for public cloud services grew 23.1% in 2021.
A crucial component of cloud security is focused on protecting data and business content, such as customer orders, secret design documents and financial records. Preventing leaks and data theft is critical for maintaining your customers’ trust and protecting the assets that contribute to your competitive advantage.
Cloud security’s ability to guard your data and assets makes it crucial to any company switching to the cloud.
The advantages of cloud security are substantial, such as:
- Lower upfront costs
- Better sense of scaling
- A more centralized security system
- Increased availability and reliability
- Reduced ongoing administrative expenses
