Introduction
Securing cloud environments is critical to protect sensitive data and prevent cyber attacks.

Best Practices for Secure Cloud Infrastructure

  1. Implement Network Segmentation Use VPCs and subnets to isolate workloads. Enable Network Access Control Lists (NACLs) for extra security.
  2. Encrypt Data at Rest and in Transit Use AWS KMS or GCP Cloud Key Management for encryption.
  3. Enable Security Logging AWS CloudTrail and GCP Cloud Audit Logs track API activities.
  4. Use Web Application Firewall (WAF) Protect against SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS).

Conclusion
Security in the cloud is a shared responsibility. By implementing these best practices, organizations can safeguard their cloud infrastructure against threats.
