Cloud security (CS) encompasses a set of policies, controls, procedures, and technologies that work together to protect systems, data, and infrastructure. With the increasing adoption of cloud services for storing and processing vast amounts of data, ensuring the security of these services has become paramount. Lucid Security CS assessments aim to address concerns related to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data in the cloud while also ensuring compliance with various regulatory requirements. Key aspects of CS include data encryption, identity and access management (IAM), secure application development, and threat detection and response. Encryption helps protect data at rest and in transit, making it unreadable to unauthorized users. IAM ensures that only authenticated and authorized users can access specific resources, thereby reducing the risk of data breaches. Secure application development practices involve incorporating security measures in the software development lifecycle to prevent vulnerabilities in cloud applications. Threat detection and response mechanisms monitor cloud environments for malicious activities and automatically respond to security incidents to minimize their impact. Lucid Security reviews Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and more cloud services to make our clients more secure. Lucid Security provides targeted cloud assessments via cloud penetration testing, as well cloud configuration reviews.
