Introduction

Learning about cloud security is a bit like going to the dentist: It has to be done, but who wants to do it? This book will make the process painless and perhaps even enjoyable. Though the information in this book will be useful to everyone who has data, uses the cloud, or lives on the planet, it will be most useful to people who are responsible for the management of company data security — particularly, when that data is stored in the cloud.

Cloud security is data security. Books about cloud security tend to focus on only the aspects of using the cloud. But this book could have been titled Data Security Even When You Use the Cloud For Dummies. But that was too long. This book covers emerging information security topics, such as DataOps and AIOPs, that, though not cloud specific, are important topics to know about when your company manages sensitive data or develops applications to manage critical data. They are more than technologies — they are philosophies that will help you create a strategy for managing information security. If you’re in the infosec business, you know it’s a lot like herding cats — and those cats are having kittens, like, every day!

You'll learn about technologies that range from AI to key fobs that will assist you in getting the job done right. Most of all, you'll learn that your biggest concern isn’t hardware or VPNs or cryptographic strength. It’s people. (Remember Soylent Green? Maybe not. It depends on your weakness for early 1970s sci-fi.) ...
