To navigate the digital landscape safely, organizations must prioritize building robust cloud infrastructures, and sanctuaries for their valuable data. The foundation of a secure cloud architecture requires steadfast principles and guiding decisions like invisible forces that form a resilient structure. Here we explore the key tenets for building a secure environment within the cloud. Least Privilege The concept of 'Least Privilege' dictates that a person or system should have the minimal level of access or permissions needed to perform their role. This security measure is akin to compartmenta ..read more
