Omer Trajman. Securing your Data in the Cloud

Cloud Computing Conference - Cloud Slam 2009.
Abstract. For all the Cloud’s benefits there are new considerations when it comes to application deployment and data security outside of the enterprise. When data is stored on your premises, access is strictly managed and guarded, and often the concern is securing your machines from external unauthorized access. Out in the cloud everything is networked and accessible, which requires a different approach. As the cloud matures, IT is developing the policies and best practices for securing data and access to cloud computing resources.

Learn about security policy in the cloud and explore the tools and technologies available today that give you the kind of control over security that you are used to having within the enterprise. We’ll discuss the role that firewalls, VPNs, encryption, and virtual root play and what assurances you need to get from your cloud provider before clicking “upload.”
