For the last several years, organizations around the world have been moving applications and services to the cloud at an increasing pace. Despite this investment, many organizations fail to fully understand the security controls they have at their disposal and fail to effectively harden their cloud environments against attack. As a result, FireEye Mandiant experts have observed a significant rise in cloud-related breaches driven by both targeted and opportunistic threat actors over the past several years.
In this session, Mandiant consultants Greg Blaum and Chris Romano share lessons learned from real-world incident response experiences, identify some common pitfalls and provide best practices for organizations to harden their cloud environments and reduce the risk of compromise. They also discuss the pitfalls and best practices presented in M-Trends 2020.
