The problem is not the cloud — it’s how organizations use it.
Most Common Cloud Security Errors
Publicly exposed storage buckets
Weak identity and access management (IAM)
Poor API security
Lack of encryption for sensitive data
Why These Mistakes Persist
Over-reliance on default settings
Lack of cloud security expertise
Complex multi-cloud environments
Best Practices for Cloud Security
Zero Trust access policies
Continuous configuration monitoring
Strong IAM with MFA
Regular security audits
Final Thoughts
Cloud platforms are secure by design, but security is a shared responsibility. Organizations must actively manage and monitor their cloud environments to stay protected.
