At Resolyte, we practice Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) which a security model that shifts away from traditional network-centric security, where users inside a network are trusted by default, to a more secure approach that verifies every user, device, and application trying to access resources, regardless of location. It assumes no one, including internal users, can be trusted by default and requires strict verification before granting access. Cloud security encompasses the strategies, technologies, and practices used to protect data, applications, and infrastructure hosted in the cloud. It's a crucial area of cybersecurity as organizations increasingly rely on cloud computing for storing and managing critical business data. Cloud security aims to safeguard against a wide range of threats, including data breaches, malware, and unauthorized access, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of cloud resources.

Implementing measures to protect sensitive data in transit and at rest, such as encryption, data loss prevention (DLP) tools, and access controls.

Securing the cloud infrastructure itself, including virtual machines (VMs), networks, and storage, through techniques like network segmentation, intrusion detection systems, and security group configuration.

Implementing robust access control mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users can access cloud resources, often involving multi-factor authentication and role-based access control with AuthN and AuthZ.

Employing security tools and technologies to identify and prevent malicious activity, such as cloud security information and event management (SIEM) systems, threat intelligence feeds, and web application firewalls (WAFs).

Developing plans and implementing technologies to ensure that cloud-based services remain available during disruptions, including backups, replication, and failover mechanisms.

In Canada, the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) governs how private-sector organizations collect, use, and disclose personal information. Australia is in the process of reforming its existing privacy laws, Privacy Act Review Report.

The PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) is an information security standard designed to reduce payment card fraud by increasing security controls around cardholder data. What is PCI DSS? Requirements & How to Comply (itgovernance.co.uk). The standard consists of a set of security standards that were established by the major credit card companies. The primary purpose of the standard is to ensure that payment card data is processed, stored, and transmitted securely. The standards cover a wide range of security controls including network, physical, and operational security. These requirements are constantly updated to keep up with changing technology and evolving threats. PCI-DSS compliance is mandatory for all businesses that accept credit card payments. This includes merchants, processors, financial institutions, and service providers that handle cardholder data. Failure to comply with the standards can result in heavy fines and penalties.
