Cloud Native Security & Compliance challenges
At present with increasing dependency on cloud technology it is becoming challenging for an organisation to meet its security goals. Since the cloud vendors are evolving rapidly while some still haven’t extended their security operations to a level upon which an organisation can rely completely.
When a business is progressively being conducted online. Compliance is the biggest challenge faced by organizations today. The sheer quantity of data at present is staggering and to keep that data secure and private is a constant battle.
Cloud security challenges
An organisation should be prepared to face cloud computing related compliance challenges . And one of the major Cloud Security threat is “misconfiguration”. When any cloud related tool or application is not configured properly it leads to “misconfiguration” thus exposing the system and leading it to a potential attack or data leak. That is followed by unauthorized – Identity access, Account hijacking and insecure interfaces.
Migration of cloud from one channel to off premises is also a major source of concern data compliance for executives and security experts.
Meeting Data Compliance Challenges Makes Good Business
To prepare for Cloud native compliance challenges an organisation should follow some holistic approach for data
security like –
- All devices that connect to your network should be controlled remotely through some software,
- strict data accessibility policies as well as regular cloud native security and accessibility training for personnel,
- comprehensive network security and other encapsulated caching systems must be adopted.
Maintaining cloud security compliance isn’t just shielding yourself legally. Data contravention can reveal confidential information and other Trade secrets that can cause serious damage to an organisation’s business and developing a tough data security plan before issue arises can reduce the data compliance challenges you are likely to face tomorrow and can be mitigated by understanding exactly what you’re up against.
