Top Cloud Server Security Risks
Misconfigured Cloud Services
Misconfigurations can expose critical resources to unauthorized access.
Inadequate Access Controls
Weak passwords, missing multi-factor authentication (MFA), and excessive privileges increase risks.
Data Breaches and Leakage
Sensitive data stored in the cloud can be targeted by attackers or accidentally exposed.
Insider Threats
Employees, contractors, or partners may intentionally or unintentionally compromise cloud security.
Insecure APIs
Poorly secured or coded APIs can be exploited to gain unauthorized access to systems.
Lack of Visibility
Limited monitoring in dynamic cloud environments leads to delayed threat detection.
DDoS Attacks
Overwhelming cloud resources can cause service disruptions and downtime.
Shared Responsibility Misunderstanding
Misunderstanding the division of security duties between providers and users creates vulnerabilities.
