Protection measures and technologies used to keep data and applications safe when stored or processed in the cloud. Like having professional security guards for your digital belongings.
Cloud security includes encryption to protect your files and authentication to ensure only you can access your accounts.
Cloud Security is a broad practice, not a single service. All major cloud providers offer security building blocks (identity and access management, encryption/key management, logging/monitoring, network protections, and security posture tools) that you combine to protect cloud data and applications.
