This document discusses security challenges in cloud computing. It notes that infrastructure has changed from buying hardware to using infrastructure as a service in the cloud. Security has also changed as cybercrime has become more organized and targets both large and small companies. While the cloud can be secure, it also introduces new security challenges around lack of control, increased threat surfaces, and difficulty tuning security tools. Effective cloud security requires applying the same standards as on-premises, understanding shared security responsibilities between the customer and cloud provider, and adopting a new approach tailored to the cloud. The document promotes Alert Logic as a solution that provides full-stack security monitoring, detection and protection across cloud workloads and applications.

The document discusses security in the cloud and outlines a shared responsibility model between cloud providers and customers. It notes that cloud workloads can be as secure or more secure than on-premises workloads when best practices are followed. Building security maturity over time is important, ranging from basic security to threat management and security operations capabilities. While security principles remain the same, the approach must change in cloud environments. Specifically, understanding shared responsibilities, applying the same standards to cloud workloads, and leveraging cloud-native security tools are emphasized.

- The document discusses strategies for both before and after a security breach occurs. - Before a breach, the key recommendations are to adopt resilient design patterns like limiting credential reuse, isolating applications, and continuously snapshotting configurations. Critical logs should also be collected and stored immutably outside the environment. - After a breach is discovered, the document advises cutting connections but also considers briefly observing the attacker first to understand the full scope. Isolating compromised infrastructure and practicing incident response drills are also suggested.

Security Checkpoints in Agile SDLCRahul Raghavan

Product Engineering teams have started to realize the importance of software security. This has resulted in the trend where teams are taking efforts to include it as part of their software development life cycle; as opposed to treating it as another item in their checklist prior to release. However, the real challenge is in trying to find the balance between agility and quality which is where many team find this an uphill task. While there is no golden standard when it comes to implementing software security, product teams should focus on bringing about systematic and cultural practices within their teams. This should help them to bring about the required efficiency to enable software security as a market differentiator. This slide-deck on Software Security Initiative focuses on translating a plan of action into sustainable activities as part of the secure software development life cycle that can be adopted by engineering teams. The slides will delve deep into aspects like identifying and designing security checkpoints in the SDLC alongside concepts such as Threat Modelling in Agile, AppSec Toolchain and Security Regressions. This was presented as a we45 Webinar on April 12, 2018

Security Implications of the CloudAlert Logic

The document discusses security implications of cloud computing and web application attacks. It notes that web application attacks are now the leading cause of data breaches, but less than 5% of security budgets are spent on application security. There is a wide range of attacks targeting different layers of the application stack. Defending applications and workloads in the cloud is complex due to rapidly changing code, vulnerabilities in third-party tools, and a shortage of cloud security expertise. Perimeter security tools are insufficient for protecting the diverse cloud attack surface. The document also provides an example of a textile company that suffered a data exfiltration attack through vulnerabilities in their PHP login system, costing them $1.8 million.

This document discusses security in the cloud and provides recommendations. It summarizes that while the cloud provides tools to enhance security, customers are still responsible for 95% of security failures due to human error. It then outlines some key findings: 1) customers must secure their entire attack surface, 2) vulnerabilities can emerge from an organization's code, configurations, and inherited issues, and 3) hybrid environments see more security incidents than public cloud alone. The document recommends that organizations find and fix vulnerabilities across their platforms, block known bad traffic, remain vigilant through monitoring, and achieve compliance as an outcome rather than a box-checking exercise. It positions Alert Logic as a partner that can help with these recommendations through anomaly detection, leveraging multiple detection
