Cloud Technology is in the vogue today. Most organizations are keen on deploying resources over cloud servers through AWS Managed Services and other cloud services. But as the organizations move their resources to cloud servers, they are exposing them to the internet world which brings major concerns with the security of the databases and other important and confidential information. So, how do you maintain the security over cloud servers?
Well, there are some very easy ways to do that. Generally, the cloud vendor you hire takes care of the security. They provide sufficient firewalls and separations between resources used by different organizations to keep up the security. Additionally, you can take the following steps to maintain the security of your cloud resources.
1. Manage User Access
You can put passwords and authentications to manage the user access. This will limit the access to your resources and other important database and information only to authorized persons and you can be sure about the security of your platform.
2. Use Data Encryption
Encrypting the data converts it into a code which scrambles only when a decryption password or code is entered. This decryption password is available only with authorized persons. So, if your data is encrypted, even if it reaches unauthorized persons by any chance, it will remain unharmed since they shall not be able to get into the files.
3. Use Two Factor Authentication
Many times, hackers and attackers try to hack into your systems with the use of software bots. Using two factor authentications such as CAPTCHA codes can limit and prevent this and make sure that only authorized access is allowed within your cloud servers.
So, these are some ways to maintain the security of your cloud platform when you are using cloud services such as the AWS Managed Services or AWS Cloud Migration Services. Keep up with these measures, and you are good to securely proceed with your cloud applications and servers.
