The fusion of Cloud and AI is more than just a technological advancement; it’s a paradigm shift. As businesses harness the combined power of these transformative technologies, the importance of a security-centric approach becomes increasingly evident. This exploration delves deeper into the strategic significance of navigating the Cloud-AI nexus with a focus on security and innovation.
In today's digital landscape, businesses are embracing the transformative power of cloud migration. Shifting operations from on-premises systems to cloud environments promises unprecedented benefits in scalability, cost-efficiency, and agility.
I’m excited to share that today at Fal.Con, CrowdStrike announced it has agreed to acquire Bionic, a pioneer of application security posture management (ASPM). This will give our customers the most seamless and comprehensive view of cloud risk — from code development through runtime — in a single, unified platform.
The Sysdig Threat Research Team (TRT) has uncovered a novel cloud-native cryptojacking operation which they’ve named AMBERSQUID. This operation leverages AWS services not commonly used by attackers, such as AWS Amplify, AWS Fargate, and Amazon SageMaker. The uncommon nature of these services means that they are often overlooked from a security perspective, and the AMBERSQUID operation can cost victims more than $10,000/day.
Successful AWS migration takes more than simply choosing to migrate. It’s a journey, and you need to be confident in your choice to upend your existing on-premise workflows to align with your business’s future. The fundamental process around a migration strategy includes understanding the benefits of a new system, assessing gaps in your existing system, migration planning, and ultimately the actual migration aspect.
One thing the IT security community should be recognized for is its willingness to share information and solutions. If you’re moving to the cloud — or interested in increasing your applications’ security, take advantage of that.
Latest cloud security statistics reveal that 91% of all organizations have some portion of their IT environment hosted in cloud platforms. While cloud computing comes with many benefits, companies have trouble scaling up the security to meet the data and privacy challenges posed by it.
