Not too sure about the technicalities myself, but could manage to find an informational article about Cloud Security. You may want to take a look : Cloud Hosting Security – Best Practices
Thank you Mattbarthorp for the useful info :smile:
Will surely follow the aspects mentioned in the cloud hosting security- best practices article to keep my cloud server secure.
Configuring clamD plugin through WHM for email security and installing CSF software firewall are the two basic things that can be done to secure the Cloud Server.
Some best practices for businesses are mentioned below.
Ask your cloud provider about exception monitoring systems.
Keeping careful watch for possible danger or difficulties such as company staff don't get a sudden access to sensitive areas.
Inquiring the cloud provider about where the data is stored and data protection.
Ask your provider whether he will apply your own security policies, if yes, make sure to develop good policies around passwords.
Inquire about Availability.
