While cloud-based infrastructure provides numerous advantages, it also introduces new security challenges:
Data Security: Businesses need to ensure that their data is protected through encryption and access controls. Compliance: Organizations must comply with industry regulations and standards such as GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS. Identity and Access Management: Implementing robust identity and access management (IAM) policies is essential to prevent unauthorized access. Shared Responsibility Model: Understanding the shared responsibility model, where cloud providers and customers share security responsibilities, is crucial.
