Cloud Security

Cloud security is the practice of protecting data, applications, and systems hosted in the cloud from threats, breaches, and unauthorised access; ensuring safe, compliant, and resilient cloud operations.

Introduction

For enterprise organisations, cloud security presents a range of challenges from misconfigured resources and identity sprawl, to data privacy and regulatory compliance. As teams adopt multicloud and hybrid environments, maintaining consistent security policies and visibility across platforms becomes increasingly difficult. Many enterprises also struggle with securing shared-responsibility boundaries where the cloud provider is responsible for the infrastructure, but the customer must secure their own data, identities, and configurations. The rapid pace of cloud adoption often leads to rushed deployments without proper governance, making cloud environments a prime target for threat actors exploiting exposed storage buckets, insecure APIs, or overly permissive access controls, to name a few.

According to Orca Security, 81% of organisations have public-facing neglected assets with open ports.
User Access Icon
Lack of Security Controls
Many organisations have root or account owner users that don’t have adequate identity-security controls such as multi-factor authentication.
Security Ownership
Some organisations share the delivery of systems with third parties which can create misunderstandings as to who is responsible for securing the infrastructure and data.

Adoption Pace Causing Security Gaps
The attractiveness of deploying business systems rapidly into easily scalable environments has led to some companies having lower governance standards. Many companies don’t know the extent of their current cloud deployment.

Unified visibility across AWS, Azure, GCP, and hybrid environments. Standardised policies applied across all cloud platforms to ensure consistent protection. Reduces misconfigurations caused by differing native tools or settings across providers.

Increase visibility of cloud footprint:

Consolidates data from multiple cloud platforms into a single, centralised dashboard. Eliminates silos and blind spots caused by using disparate cloud security tools.

Automated policy enforcement:

Uses automation to apply and maintain security rules at scale, even in dynamic environments. Prevents policy drift by continuously checking and remediating non-compliant resources.

Faster cloud detection and response:

Continuously tracks changes in cloud environments to provide up-to-date visibility. Detects new services, permissions changes, and third-party integrations as they occur.
