Generally deployed for protecting workloads, cloud security solutions such as CSPM tools and cloud compliance tools, have been helping organizations reduce risks and enhance compliance posture. Multiple solutions are currently available in the market, such as
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Security Posture Management (SSPM):
A wide range of technologies and tools of security are offered in SSPM. This helps organizations in protecting both of their environments, on-premises and the cloud.
Cloud Access Security Brokers (CASB):
CASBs enable organizations achieve end-to-end monitoring and enforce security norms to amplify access protection. Unlike traditional security solutions, CASBs facilitate protecting data stored in foreign systems. This empowers organizations with consistency in infrastructure governance and security.
Cloud Workload Protection Platforms (CWPP):
These solutions suit well for both virtual machines (VMs) and cloud platforms. By leveraging cloud workload protection solutions, organizations are able to gain continuous monitoring and risk prevention capabilities.

What Should Organizations Look for While Adopting Cloud Security?
Following are key areas that organizations and their information security custodians like you must understand while selecting the best cybersecurity software for their infrastructure.
Contracts and SLAs
The only advocates of services and their course of assistance are contracts and SLAs. Several top security companies do not underline that the customer owns their data. This creates a grey area around the legal perspective. Dive deeper into T&Cs, appendices, and fine print for identifying who is responsible for data ownership and the consequences of service termination at any time.
Strong Passwords
This may sound redundant or obvious but is imperative for unauthorized access prevention. Enforcing rules for periodic password updates along with multi-factor authentication can help you defend against potential cyberattacks.
Cloud Visibility
Blind spots are inevitable when organizations depend on more than one cloud service provider. Always emphasize implementation of a solution that offers complete ecosystem visibility. This in turn allows integration of security policies that mitigate a broad spectrum of threats.
Encryption
Too many transitions of data between environments increases the risk of data theft or loss. Consider leveraging data encryption measures for data in transit as well as at rest for maintaining complete control.
Shared Responsibility
While CSPs never take complete ownership of cloud security, it is not your responsibility alone either. Shared responsibility with clear accountability is key. While implementing a cloud security solution clearly identifies the tasks that organizations must handle vis-Ã -vis their CSP. Ensuring clarity and transparency in relationship is imperative.
