Abstract

As organizations migrate to the cloud, they face a growing number of cybersecurity threats that pose significant risks to their data, applications, and overall IT infrastructure. This paper highlights the top 10 cloud security threats that enterprises must be aware of, including data breaches, misconfigurations, account hijacking, and insider threats. In addition, we explore the best practices and mitigation strategies to minimize these risks, such as encryption, multi-factor authentication, regular audits, and adopting a Zero Trust architecture. The paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the threats in the cloud environment and offer actionable solutions to secure cloud environments effectively.
