3 Overlooked Cloud Security Attack Vectors
InfoWorld, April 11th, 2023
Enterprises are putting their sensitive data in the cloud but both sides are responsible for security. Be sure your cloud provider is aware of these threats.
A 2022 Thales Cloud Security study revealed that 88% of enterprises store a significant amount (at least 21%) of their sensitive data in the cloud. No surprise there. Indeed, I thought the percentage would be much higher. The same report showed that 45% of organizations have experienced a data breach or failed an audit involving cloud-based data and applications. This news is less surprising and less encouraging.
As I covered previously, humans create most cloud computing security problems. They make easily preventable mistakes that cost enterprises millions in lost revenue and bad PR.
