Securing Services in the Cloud

Providing secure services in a modern computing environment is a complex, multi-disciplinary systems engineering problem. We cannot consider the services or the cloud in isolation but must look at all the systems involved: the cloud, the services hosted in the cloud, the devices and users employing those services, the data involved in the services, and the networks over which the services are provided. All of these must be secured and managed in a consistent manner. In this talk, I will analyze this problem and present a model for achieving adequate security in this complex, interdependent environment.
