It’s been a tough week for the cloud! Both AWS and Microsoft experienced major outages, affecting businesses across industries. No, these weren’t caused by attackers, but the impact was nearly identical. - Operations paused. - Services went dark. - Customers left in the dark. As someone who advises on cloud and cybersecurity resilience, I emphasize BCDR planning, reliable backups, and even multi-cloud strategies - not as buzzwords, but as lifelines. Security isn’t just about stopping attacks. It’s about staying operational when things go wrong, no matter the reason. If you’re not planning for disruption, you’re planning for loss. #CloudResilience #AWSOutage #MicrosoftOutage #Cybersecurity #BCDR #MultiCloud #CloudStrategy #ArkShield

Still loving the new Cloud Security Report from the Latio team! If you haven’t read it yet, it’s well worth a look. One stat that stood out: over 65% of respondents don’t expect their Cloud Security budgets to increase in 2026. Not surprising, but definitely concerning. Security leaders continue to be asked to do more with less in an ever-evolving threat landscape. Even more alarming? 80% of cloud breaches now start at the application layer. So the real question is: Is your CNAPP built to defend against modern, app-layer attacks; especially in the GenAI era where code creation has exploded? Most aren’t. That’s why at RoonCyber, we’ve gone beyond the traditional CNAPP with a Runtime CNAPP + Cloud Application Detection and Response (CADR) solution—providing complete, agentless code-to-cloud protection. Protect more. Spend less. Don’t settle for “do more with less” when you can have everything you need in one platform. See why we were given the badge of Cloud Innovator with a demo here: https://lnkd.in/erbr2SJH #CloudSecurity #CodetoCloud #Cybersecurity

When the cloud crashes, will your business stay online? 🔥 Today’s global AWS outage is a reminder that even the biggest providers aren’t immune to downtime, and when they go down, so can the systems your business depends on. Cybersecurity isn’t just about stopping threats. It’s about ensuring continuity, redundancy, and resilience when technology fails. In our latest blog, we break down what the outage means for small businesses and how to protect your operations from being brought to a halt when your cloud provider goes dark. 🔗 Read the full post: https://lnkd.in/gPWyd3pd #Cybersecurity #BusinessContinuity #CloudComputing #CyberResilience #SmallBusiness #ShieldITNetworks

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗪𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱 Cloud storage has transformed the way businesses manage files, easy access, collaboration, and scalability all in one place. But convenience can create a false sense of security. The truth is, what’s in the cloud still needs to be protected. 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀 𝗼𝗻: 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗱𝗼 Use encryption to protect your data both in transit and at rest. Combine that with multi-factor authentication so stolen passwords alone can’t grant access. 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗮 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗲𝘆𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 Public links and overly broad permissions are common blind spots. Regularly review who can view, edit, or share files in your cloud environment, and tighten access where needed. 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 The cloud doesn’t eliminate risk; it shifts where that risk lives. With the right controls in place, it can be both powerful and secure. But ignoring the basics can leave your most valuable data exposed. #Cybersecurity #DataProtection #Cybersecuritytips #Tuesdaytip #OnlineSafety #SynEaterConsulting

𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲☁️ 𝘃𝘀. 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸𝘂𝗽💾, 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗢𝗻𝗲’𝘀 𝗥𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗬𝗼𝘂❓ In today’s digital world, data is everything, but how you store it makes all the difference. Cloud storage lets you access files from anywhere and keeps everything synced automatically, while local backups give you full control (but come with risks like physical damage or loss). The best solution? A smart mix of both. 🔐 Protect your data before you lose it; prevention is always better than recovery. #CloudStorage, #LocalBackup, #DataProtection, #TechTips, #CyberSecurity, #FileBackup, #DataRecovery, #DigitalSafety, #VillagesComputerRepairs, #AtlantaTech, #TechSolutions, #ComputerRepair, #ITSupport, #BackupStrategy, #TechAwareness

🚨 Cloud security alerts have TRIPLED this year, no, it’s not just you. More businesses are getting hit with automated warnings, false positives, and legit threats buried in the noise. Missing a real alert? That’s how breaches happen. Here’s what you need to know: • Not all alerts are equal. Prioritize response: don’t ignore the noise. • Automate where possible, but always layer on human expertise. • Review your incident response playbook (when did you last test it?) Cloud security isn’t set-and-forget. Need a hand filtering out the noise and focusing on what truly matters? B&R Computers is here to help: no tech jargon, just results. #CloudSecurity #Cybersecurity #RiskManagement #BRComputers #SmallBusinessIT

Cloud breaches are rising. Remediation is lagging. Despite years of cloud security investment, attackers are moving faster than most teams can respond. The 2025 Cloud Security Report exposes the widening gap between cloud complexity and protection. Read the full report: https://lnkd.in/ectPs79V Key cloud security findings: ➤ 65% faced cloud incidents last year — up 4% ➤ 6% remediated breaches within one hour ➤ 62% took longer than 24 hours to respond ➤ Delays tied to manual handoffs, tool silos ➤ Automation needed across cloud + on-prem Cloud-native threats demand cloud-speed defenses. That means AI-powered enforcement, real-time detection, and automated containment — not tickets and triage. Attackers aren’t waiting. Why should your response?

The Importance of Network Security in the Cloud As I continue learning and building in cloud environments, I’ve realized how vital network security truly is — it’s not just about protection, but about ensuring trust, reliability, and smooth operations. With more organizations moving to the cloud, securing virtual networks through tools like VPCs, firewalls, and IAM policies helps control access, monitor traffic, and prevent data breaches.However, lets not forget the basics that is network access control lists and security groups. Where all the other tools may fail, defining these rules could save the day. A strong cloud network security foundation doesn’t just defend against threats — it empowers innovation with confidence, allowing teams to build and scale safely in the cloud. I'm also trying to post more on here so bare with me 😅 . #Cybersecurity #AWS
