Cloud security involves the protection of data stored in cloud computing platforms against both external and internal cybersecurity threats such as data theft, leakage, deletion, and unauthorized access.

Cloud protection is a crucial component of cloud security that consists of tools designed to reduce risks associated with cloud misconfigurations, minimize the attack surface, eliminate the threat of lateral movement, and secure data and user access to cloud apps and app-to-app communications.
Measures to protect this data include two-factor authorization, the use of data encryption, firewall, email security cloud solution, CASB, CSPM, SDP and SASE solutions.

A cloud protection solution helps to ensure that your data and applications are secure and properly configured to prevent application compromise and data loss, all while reducing complexity.
