Cloud Security
The practices, controls, and technologies used to protect data, applications, and infrastructure hosted in cloud environments, addressing the shared-responsibility split between the cloud provider, which secures the underlying infrastructure, and the customer, who secures what they configure and put in it. Misconfiguration on the customer side of that split is the leading cause of cloud breaches.
