With companies accelerating their migration to the cloud to save costs and increase efficiency and scalability, ensuring data security in the cloud is a top priority. Organizations need skilled and reputable cloud security professionals to secure their sensitive business information and intellectual property against increasingly sophisticated cyberthreats.nnWhile third-party cloud service providers like AWS, Azure, and GCP manage the physical infrastructure underpinning the cloud, the responsibility for securing data assets—and, depending on the cloud service model, elements like application code—remains with the customer. A certified cloud security professional can help organizations develop robust security strategies that minimize the risks associated with cloud migration.
