Top 10 Cloud Computing Security Vulnerability| Shadow Cyber Security


Having insecure identity and access management is a common vulnerability in cloud systems. It occurs when a user service of your infrastructure has access to resources they should not be able to access and do not need.



The increasing utilization of the public cloud, involving humongous data is leading to growing cloud security issues and risks.

The survey results indicate the possibility of several critical issues such as data breaches, unauthorized access to data resulting from inadequate identity and access management, insecure APIs, service and access management, insecure APIs service hijacking advanced persistent threats and denial of service, among others.

Following points given below explain the security issues in cloud computing:-


1. Inadequate Identity And Access Management




Attack and security breaches can also result from non usage of multi factor authentication, lack of ongoing automated rotation of cryptographic keys and certification,as well as weak password usage.

The authentication system should support the enforcement of policies fro strong password usage and organization, defined rotation period in case of legacy systems that involve the usage of password alone.


2. Data Breaches




Data breaches involves the release of protected or confidential information to unauthorized individual or groups.Multi Factor authorization of data hosted by cloud service providers nakes from susceptible to the risk of data breaches. 

While cloud providers take responsibility for their service the customers or businesses are also responsible for protecting their own data. These can result from targeted attacks or even poor security practices application vulnerability or human error.


3. Insecure APIs




As Application programming interfaces enables the provisioning management and monitoring of cloud services, their security is of prime importance.

The interfaces must be designed to authentication, access control encryption and activity monitoring.


4.Communication With CSPs




Service level agreement with CSPs. They can use the CSA security, Trust and Assurance Registry as a reference fro understanding the security controls offered by CSPs.

CSPs also need to provide details on how they protect multi tenant boundaries and ensure PCI and federal information security management Act compliance.


5.Vulnerabilities Caused By Shared Technology




CSPs deliver scalable services by sharing infrastructure, applications and platforms without substantial alterations to the off the shelf hardware and software.


6.DoS Attacks




Denial of service attacks the consumption of disproportionately large amount of system resources including memory, network bandwidth, disk space and processor power by the targeted cloud services,there by preventing the users from accessing their and applications.


7.Abuse oF Cloud Services




Malicious attacks can also result from issues such as unsecured cloud service deployments,fraudulent account sign ups and free cloud service trials.Hosting of malicious or pirated content campaigns and emails spam are same of the examples of cloud resource misuse.


8.Malware Injection




Malware injection are becoming a major security concern in cloud computing. These are malicious script or code that enables attackers to eavesdrop, steal adata and compromise the integrity of  sensitive information.


9.Advanced Persistent Threats




Advanced Persistent Threats steal data and intellectual Property by infiltrating the IT systems of target companies. The common points of entry for APTs are spear phishing,direct hacking systems and use of unsecured or third party networks.

They are difficult to detect and eliminate, they can be restricted with proactive security measures.


10.Malicious Insider Threats




The threat caused by insiders with malicious intent, who might by system administors having access to critical systems and sensitive information, can have a tremendous impact on a company's security.

The CSP needs to ensure effective policies, segregation of duties and proper logging, auditing and monitoring of administrators activities.
