How Safe is The Public Cloud?
Often organizations make over-generalizations around public cloud infrastructure. Some organizations assume the public cloud is inherently safe without prudent deployment and care, and other organizations assume that the cloud is inherently vulnerable to cyberattacks. The truth is, the public cloud is as safe as the security measure and precautionary measures an organization adopts to protect its public cloud environment.
As organizations may be familiar with, the public cloud allows for many security measures and precautions that benefit organizations. By enabling cloud-based parameter security, and compliance policies, organizations can replicate the same security protocols they benefit from in an on-premises architecture, now just in their cloud environment. To build on this, the public cloud can actually offer security enhancements that on-premises organizations lack, such as cloud-based centralized key management, on-demand immutable storage, and secure data warehousing.
The important takeaway for any new organization considering moving to the cloud is that the cloud is as secure as you'd like to make it, based on your unique security policies and strategies enabled in your cloud-native environment.
