Technologies and measures that protect data and applications from unauthorized access, breaches, and cyber threats
What is it?

Cloud security refers to the technologies and measures that protect data and applications, aiming to prevent unauthorized access, breaches, and cyber threats.

How can it affect you?

Weak cloud security can lead to:

  • Data breaches exposing personal or corporate information
  • Loss of data integrity or unauthorized modifications
  • Service disruptions caused by cyberattacks
  • Financial and reputational harm

Example
A user saved important files in the cloud without encryption.
When their account was hacked, the files were exposed

  • Enable two-factor authentication
