Cloud computing has been perceived as risky strategy, as if an organization were outsourcing its very soul. But Dan Griffin explains that the bigger risk is to ignore the benefits of cloud computing-particularly for high-growth businesses. He demonstrates both how to make the technology secure and how to exploit its unique opportunities as a business enabler. For example, many cloud technologies offer ready support for collaboration with partners and customers, mobile computing and the bring-your-own-device (BYOD) trend, as well as the consumerization of IT. This second edition includes the current state of cloud technology, data security and data storage, with Griffin covering best practices, tools and security must-haves for investing in the cloud-including these: -Threat modeling -Federated identity -Phone-based authentication -Attribute-based authorization -Encryption

In any technology domain, security has overhead and costs associated with it, and cloud computing is no different. But cloud computing offers some unique opportunities for organizations to use security as a business enabler. For example, many cloud technologies offer ready support for collaboration with partners and customers. Likewise, cloud services are being used by IT organizations to support mobile computing, the "bring your own device" trend, and the consumerization of IT. In all of those contexts, security technologies are an enabler.

Security is an advantage: the Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) trend in enterprise IT has caused users to expect anywhere/anytime access to sensitive data, from any mobile device. But IT managers are nervous about serving sensitive corporate data to devices that lack sophisticated security controls. By applying the Four Pillars of Endpoint Security, businesses can stay competitive and operate without interruption, which leads to higher productivity and business velocity.
