Cloud Security Foundations

Cloud computing has fundamentally changed how organizations build and operate technology, and with it, what defenders need to know. The traditional perimeter-based model where most assets sat in corporate data centers has given way to environments distributed across public cloud platforms, SaaS applications, and hybrid combinations. Defending these environments requires understanding their unique characteristics, risks, and controls.
