    Cloud computing provides on-demand delivery of computing resources like storage, databases, networks, and applications via the internet. There are three main types of clouds: public clouds which are owned and managed by cloud providers and shared by multiple organizations; private clouds which are owned and managed internally by a single organization; and hybrid clouds which combine public and private clouds. The four main cloud service models are Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Desktop as a Service (DaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). Security in the cloud involves the provider being responsible for security of the cloud infrastructure and the consumer being responsible for security within their usage of cloud resources.

    SOC

    in the Clouds
    What is Cloud Computing?
    Cloud computing has a complex and formal definition but let’s look at a
    simplified version for ease in understanding.
    Overall, cloud computing provides an operating model to deliver services
    like computing, storage, network, databases, platforms, and applications.
    It does so by using a service model on top of the usual data center’s basic
    building blocks. Cloud computing allows for various levels of rapid
    deployment of these services through the internet.
    If the hardware is managed and owned by an internal IT team it is known
    as a private cloud. If a company outsources all the management of the
    cloud infrastructure, it is a public cloud. Otherwise, a combination of
    both is a hybrid cloud.
    The most common cloud service providers (CSP) are: AWS, Google GCP,
    or Microsoft Azure. These companies establish and manage private
    clouds.

    Fast Facts
    • Public cloud
    Owned by: Cloud providers like AWS, Google GCP, or
    Microsoft Azure
    Consumed by: Enterprises and individuals using a
    pay-as-you-go billing model
    Responsible for: Managing, maintaining, and developing
    the computing resources pool shared between various
    clients
    • Private cloud
    Owned by: An enterprise that offers infrastructure and
    application platforms to internal consumers or developers
    Consumed by: A single organization
    Works by: Giving complete control to the company and
    scaling resources up and down as required
    • Hybrid cloud
    Defined as: A combination of public cloud and private
    cloud. A private cloud is always involved.
    • Multicloud
    Defined as: A cloud deployment model consisting of
    multiple clouds--private, public, or both.

    Cloud Service Models
    Moving forward, you’ll want to be familiar with the four cloud service
    models that are most popular.

    • Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). IaaS refers to a public or


    private cloud deployment that’s used to offer infrastructure
    components like:
    Servers and storage
    Networking hardware
    The physical data center itself

    • Platform as a Service (PaaS). PaaS refers to a kind of


    development platform that’s used to deploy binaries and
    develop data applications or stores
    Examples:
    Google App engine--public, code deployment
    AWS Elastic Beanstalk--public, code deployment
    Azure App Service--public, code deployment
    Heroku--public, code deployment
    Cloud Foundry--private, code deployment
    AWS Redshift--public, data mart development
    • Desktop as a Service (DaaS or IaaS + PaaS). DaaS delivers
    managed virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) as a service over
    the network.
    Examples:
    AWS Workspaces
    Microsoft Azure DaaS
    VMware
    Horizon Cloud
    Citrix Managed Desktops

    • Software as a Service (SaaS). SaaS delivers software that’s


    accessed online and usually through a subscription. It offers
    fully executed applications instead of development building
    blocks like IaaS or PaaS.
    Examples:
    Salesforce for CRM
    Workday for HCM
    Microsoft Office 365 for office productivity suite

    Cloud Security
    If you haven’t heard this phrase yet, you’ll be familiar with it before long:

    The provider is responsible for the security of the cloud, and


    the consumer is responsible for the security in the cloud.

    This general rule of thumb provides valuable insight into the


    fundamentals of cloud cybersecurity.
