How to Build a More Secure Cloud: 5 Strategies for 2022

cloud security

Cloud adoption is increasing daily, and almost all small to large-scale companies are predicted to rely on cloud technologies in the near future. The security and privacy cloud technologies offers are evident – still, privacy breaches can happen. 

Maintaining a top-notch Cloud security system is essential, especially for businesses to secure their sensitive data and information. Luckily, we have 5 strategies to help you build a more secure cloud. Keep reading!

1. Regularly Review Cloud Data and Configurations

The more stuffed your cloud data storage is, the more it will be open to vulnerabilities. Try to review your cloud data regularly and delete unnecessary files you don’t need anymore. If you can’t delete the files permanently, move them somewhere else to free up some space. Doing this will make the Cloud more user-friendly and safe from potential breaches.

After reviewing the data, make sure to keep an eye on the security configurations regularly. Sometimes a lot of misconfigurations happen that could lead to a security breach of the Cloud. Therefore, you need to perform frequent configuration tests to ensure your data is safe and protected. 

2. Think About Physical Considerations

Your cloud design matters a lot when it comes to the security and safety of your business. So, try to ensure that you build a zero-trust structure with limited access, endpoints, and dependencies. If you are outsourcing an external cloud vendor, make sure to convey all your security requirements or mention them in their Service Level Agreements.

3. Emphasize IAM

IAM; Identity and Access Management is an essential concept to keep your business data safe and secure. IAM means that employees and users should have limited and required access to what they require to fulfill their jobs and duties. So, ensure your cloud applications follow the IAM rule to avoid giving unnecessary access to potential attackers and hackers.

4. Embrace Automation

Automation is the key to reducing the risks of security breaches and errors by automatically working on updates. It works by reducing the involvement of human technicians and human errors and monitoring the cloud applications more accurately. Embracing automation can be a bit expensive. However, if you are willing to spend for the betterment of your business, embrace it!

5. Train The Users

No matter how strong your cloud security is – if your users are not trained enough to avoid errors, your security is always at risk! Phishers and cybercriminals also take advantage of this vulnerability of businesses. Therefore, make sure to properly train the users to avoid critical errors that can jeopardize the security of your business. Tell them about the concepts like phishing prevention and strong password management, and provide them with practical cybersecurity training.

Wrapping Up

The Cloud and its applications are crucial for businesses to adapt in 2022. However, keeping how to use it securely is also essential to avoid the wrath of cybercrimes. We hope our strategies helped in that regard and you succeed in keeping yourself secure!
