Cloud security has become a divisive topic within many companies. Some see cloud computing as a business necessity, or a vehicle to transform old world IT. To me, cloud computing represents an opportunity to re-think, re-design, and operationalize information security and risk management to drive business agility. A successful approach combines the refactoring of existing information security practices with automation that operates at cloud speed and scale. The combination of these powerful automation and refactored information security concepts creates an environment in which security requirements for cloud systems are codified and enforced.”]
