Back to Cyber-security

As workloads move to the cloud, the security perimeter becomes identity. Most cloud breaches trace not to a provider failure but to customer misconfiguration: exposed storage, over-privileged accounts, and credentials without multi-factor authentication.

This report sets out the cloud and identity framework in your chosen jurisdiction and industry: the shared-responsibility model, the controller's continuing accountability wherever processing occurs, and the cloud-outsourcing and concentration expectations that DORA formalises.

It documents the scenarios that recur, some of the largest exposures on record from a single unsecured storage bucket or over-permissioned identity, and the operational risk of one identity-provider outage cascading across every dependent service.

It covers the priorities that follow, enforced multi-factor authentication, least-privilege identity, continuous configuration monitoring and encryption at rest, and when to engage cloud-security specialists and data-protection counsel on residency.
