Cloud security · Intermediate
Cloud security is a shared responsibility. Here is your part.
Using a cloud provider does not transfer every security responsibility. Your role depends on the service and how you configure it.
Know what you own
Review the provider’s responsibility model for each service. Account access, data classification, and configuration often remain your responsibility.
Watch for common mistakes
Overly broad permissions, exposed storage, and missing logs can turn small mistakes into major incidents.
Make the basics repeatable
Use reviewed infrastructure templates, centralized identity, configuration checks, and regular access reviews.
