Today, cloud computing is constantly changing how organizations use, store, and share data, applications, and workloads. But at the same time, it also triggered a series of new security threats and challenges. As more and more data enters the cloud, especially into public cloud services, these resources have naturally become the targets of cybercriminals.Utilization of public clouds is rapidly growing, and will inevitably lead to more sensitive content being put at potential risk. However, contrary to what many people think, the primary responsibility for protecting enterprise data in the cloud lies not with cloud service providers, but with cloud customers themselves. We are in a cloud-security transition, with the emphasis shifting from suppliers to customers.

Many businesses are beginning to realize that spending a lot of time deciding whether a particular cloud service provider is “secure” results in few results because the primary responsibility lies with the user.

To help businesses understand cloud security threats so that they can make informed decisions about cloud adoption strategies, the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) recently released the latest version of the Top 12 Cloud Security Threats: Industry Insights Report.

This report reflects the current consensus among cloud computing security consultants (CSA) security experts on the most important security issues in cloud computing. The cloud computing security alliance said that although there are many security issues in the cloud at the moment, the report focuses on 12 threats involving sharing and on-demand features of cloud computing.
In order to determine what users are most concerned about, the Cloud Security Alliance conducted a survey of industry experts to write some professional opinions and suggestions on the most serious security issues in cloud computing. The following are the specifics of the 12 most serious cloud security issues (sorted by the severity of the survey results)
  1. Data Breaches
  2. Insufficient Identity, Credential, and Access Management
  3. Insecure Interfaces and APIs
  4. System Vulnerabilities
  5. Account Hijacking
  6. Malicious Insiders
  7. Advanced Persistent Threats
  8. Data Loss
  9. Insufficient Due Diligence
  10. Abuse and Nefarious Use of Cloud Services
  11. Denial of Service
  12. Shared Technology Vulnerabilities
