Cloud adoption is foundational in the tech landscape, but security is often overlooked and not guaranteed out of the box.
Most cloud security failures stem from simple oversights rather than sophisticated attacks, like over-permissioned IAM roles and unencrypted data stores.
Security in the cloud requires ongoing practice and a disciplined mindset, as temporary measures can become permanent vulnerabilities.
Key considerations include encryption, IAM management, monitoring for unusual activity, patching services, and being aware of common security risks.
