Hybrid Cloud Security Patterns

Understand unique security patterns related to identity and access management, infrastructure, data and workload protection, compliance and posture management, and zero trust for your hybrid cloud deployments

Key Features

• Secure cloud infrastructure, applications, data, and shift left security to create dev-sec-ops
• Patterns for continuous security, automated threat detection and accelerated incident response
• Leverage hybrid cloud security patterns for protecting critical data using zero trust model

Book Description

Security is a primary concern for enterprises going through digital transformation and accelerating their journey to multi-cloud environments. This book recommends a simple patterns-based approach to architect, design and implement security for workloads deployed on AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and IBM Cloud.

The book discusses enterprise modernization trends and the related security opportunities and challenges. You will understand how to implement identity and access management for your cloud resources and applications. The book discusses patterns to protect cloud infrastructure (compute, storage & network) and provide protection for data at rest, in transit and in use. You will also learn how to shift left and include security in the early stages of application development to adopt DevSecOps. The book also deep dives into threat monitoring, configuration and vulnerability management, and automated incident response. You will learn patterns to implement security posture management backed with intelligence and automated protection to stay ahead of the threats.

By the end of this book, you will learn all the hybrid cloud security patterns and will be able to use them to create zero trust architecture that provides continuous security and compliance for your cloud workloads.

What you will learn

• Address hybrid cloud security challenges with patterns-based approach
• Manage identity and access for users, services, and applications
• Use patterns for secure compute, network isolation, protection, and connectivity
• Protect data at rest, in transit and in use with data security patterns
• Understand how to shift left security for applications with DevSecOps
• Centrally manage security posture with CSPM
• Automate incident response with SOAR
• Use hybrid cloud security patterns to build zero trust security model

Who This Book Is For

The book is targeted towards Cloud Solution Architects, Security Professionals, Cloud Engineers, and DevOps engineers and provides prescriptive guidance on architecture and design patterns for protecting their data and securing their applications deployed on hybrid cloud environments. You are expected to have basic knowledge of different types of cloud providers, cloud deployment models, as well as cloud consumption models.
