Cloud Security explained

We learned different types of Cloud Computing and Cloud Service Models in previous videos. In this video I am going to explain how security is managed in the Cloud.

There are two important terms to explain Cloud Security. security of the cloud and security in the cloud.

Cloud Provider is responsible for “Security of the Cloud” which means protecting the infrastructure that runs all of the services offered in the Cloud. Customer responsible for “Security in the Cloud” which means responsibility will be determined by the Cloud services that a customer selects. The cloud provider is responsible for the infrastructure which is composed of the hardware, software, networking, and facilities that run their Cloud services. Customer responsibility also varies depending on which model they select. This determines the amount of configuration work the customer must perform as part of their security responsibilities.

For example customers have more responsibility if they subscribe to I a a S services.
