Security News > 2022 > December > Don’t ignore the security risks of limitless cloud data
Our sensitive data must be accounted for and protected, and the security industry and public sector must work together to establish technologies and strategies to ensure proper data management.
The goal of cloud data security isn't to lock down data and ensure that it can never be moved or changed.
Cloud data security is about helping an organization use the cloud effectively, taking advantage of the speed and scalability of cloud computing while maintaining reasonable and effective access controls.
Cloud data is a difficult challenge for IAM, and data access tools often struggle to answer the question, "What happens when the data moves?".
Protecting sensitive data will require a fundamental change to the way we think about data as it moves throughout cloud environments.
Maintaining security controls as data moves throughout the cloud ensures that the efforts of our security teams aren't wasted.
