Best practices for securing the cloud

The first thing that you can do to improve the security of your cloud-based systems is to enable SSL (Secure Socket Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security) encryption. This will help to protect your data from being intercepted by attackers.

You can also improve the security of your systems by using firewalls and an IDS (intrusion detection system) and an IPS (intrusion prevention system). These devices can help to protect your systems from being attacked by malicious traffic.

Here's a list of other things you can do:

• To protect your data, you should enforce the use of data encryption and access controls. This includes data that is in rest as well as in motion.
• Disaster recovery planning is another critical factor when securing your cloud-based systems. You should have a plan in place in case of a natural disaster or a security incident.
• Enforce SLAs to ensure your cloud provider meets the security requirements you have...
