Secure Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is a new way of delivering computing resources, not a new technology.
Computing services ranging from data storage and processing to software, such as email handling, are now available instantly, commitment-free and on-demand. Since we are in a time of belt-tightening, this new economic model for computing has found fertile ground and is seeing massive global investment. The worldwide forecast for cloud services in Q3 2019 was in the order of US$27.5bn. The estimation for 2025 amounts in the European market ranging from €75bn.
The key conclusion of this course is that the cloud’s economies of scale and flexibility are both a friend and a foe from a security point of view. The massive concentrations of resources and data present a more attractive target to attackers, but cloud-based defences can be more robust, scalable and cost-effective. This course allows an informed assessment of the security risks and benefits of using cloud computing - providing security guidance for potential and existing users of cloud computing.
