When an organization moves its operations to the cloud, which aspect of security is typically under the purview of the organization itself rather than the cloud service provider?
Securing and maintaining the physical facilities where servers are housed.
Ensuring uninterrupted power supply and physical environmental controls within data centers.
Managing and securing data, including access and encryption, and protecting the integrity of application platforms.
Maintaining the hardware that makes up the network infrastructure for hosted services.
The organization is responsible for security in the cloud, which refers to anything that the organization brings into the cloud or connects to cloud services. This includes the data they store and process, encryption of said data, identity and access management, and the security of the application layer. Conversely, the cloud service provider is accountable for the security of the cloud infrastructure such as data centers, networks, and hardware that run cloud services.
