Cloud Storage Security

Cloud storage security covers the technologies and policies that protect data stored in the cloud from unauthorized access, breaches and loss.

As organizations move data to the cloud, securing it becomes a critical concern.

Security Mechanisms

Data is protected through encryption at rest and in transit, strong authentication, access control and key management. The shared responsibility model defines what the cloud provider secures versus the customer.

Threats include data breaches, insider attacks, misconfiguration and account hijacking, mitigated through monitoring, multi-factor authentication and regular audits.
