Overview of Data Migration and Data Security in Cloud<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to a study by IDG, an American magazine publisher specializing in computer technologies in the enterprise cloud market, 77% of companies now have at least one application, or part of their IT infrastructure, on the Cloud.<\/span> With the digital transformation, more and more companies are in favor of dematerialized documents. It must be said that the Cloud has many advantages<\/a><\/strong>: immediate availability of documents, dynamic filing, access from any device (smartphone, PC, tablet, etc.), monitoring of changes, etc. And to take full advantage of it, it is essential to data security in Cloud.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Do We Mean by Cloud Data Security?<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cloud security<\/a><\/strong> refers to protecting the integrity of applications, data, and virtual infrastructure hosted in the cloud. This term applies to all cloud deployment models (public, private, hybrid, multi-cloud) and all types of on-demand services and solutions (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) in the cloud. Generally speaking, in the context of cloud services,<\/span> the cloud provider<\/b><\/a> has the responsibility for securing the underlying infrastructure, while the customer is responsible for securing the applications and data in the cloud.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Workloads in the Cloud are Vulnerable to a Variety of Threats<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cloud assets and workloads are exposed to a wide range of cybersecurity threats, including data breaches, ransomware, DDoS attacks, and phishing attacks. Cybercriminals can exploit security vulnerabilities in the cloud, using stolen credentials or compromised applications to launch attacks, disrupt services or steal sensitive data. The reliability of<\/span> cloud security systems and practices<\/b> is essential to maintain the availability of critical business applications, protect confidential information, and ensure regulatory compliance.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Prerequisite & Diagnosis<\/b> of Data Security<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cloud security means adopting new practices. But it is also the realization of a diagnosis, concerning the state of its computer system – what are the vulnerabilities? What constraints weigh on a daily basis? How to optimize performance and master cybersecurity issues? This will allow you to take stock of the situation and define the right measures to put in place in order to secure all of your data in the Cloud.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Practices of Data Migration and <\/strong>Data Security in Cloud<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Define Several Access Levels According to the Profiles<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cloud providers have a logical mission: to offer access to cloud-based data storage tools. But it is not up to them to define the policy that the company will pursue in this area. In fact, it is up to the organization to put in place the right rules to guarantee data access and data security. Thus, it is essential to define several levels of access:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
