This is so goddamn real, I once saw an unnamed company DDoS itself multiple times in one week because they didn't take into account how their network would be affected by forcing OS patches across the entire fleet through their VPN if they happened all at the exact same time.

And the person who knew how to script the staggering so that wouldn't happen had been laid off because they cost too much less than a year prior.

- Lua

Last night I completed the 'Learn Lua Course' on Codecademy! I really liked it! Did 3 projects but only documented 2 of them! Will I continue learning Lua? Yeah sure, I liked it and the course made me more interested in the language than I thought I would before starting. Lua isn't a priority language to learn but it's fun so I will learn it slowly, bit by bit. It'll be in the "fun language but don't need it at work" category, along with Python 🥰

>> note: have a nice day/night and good luck with your studies and in life!

Security and privacy issues in cloud computing

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/security-and-privacy-issues-in-cloud-computing/

Security and privacy issues in cloud computing

Cloud computing is the main support for many companies worldwide. More businesses are moving to cloud computing to improve how they work and compete.

It’s important to find the top security problems in cloud computing. Data leaks caused by cloud setup mistakes and past data leaks need to be watched. This is to avoid impact on the company. 

What is cloud computing? 

Cloud computing changes how we manage, access, and store data. This is done through internet services. This is different from the old way of using storage devices.  

The new cloud-computing model means you do not have to worry about managing servers. Both companies and people can benefit. They get strong data security and flexible, low-cost, and easy-to-adapt data solutions in the cloud. 

Why do you need cloud computing? 

Companies can use secure data centers, lower infrastructure costs, and do operation optimization at full length. It increases efficiency, lowers costs, and empowers businesses. 

With cloud computing, an organization can quickly adjust resources to match demand without requiring large initial hardware investments. 

An organization needs to pay for only the resources it consumes, lowering expenses for infrastructure and upkeep. 

You can access data and applications remotely with an internet connection, which increases accessibility to work and collaboration. 

You can, however, enable fast deployment of new applications and services, eliminating the lengthy lead times of traditional IT methods. 

In cloud computing, service providers take care of maintenance and updates, guaranteeing that you constantly receive the most up-to-date features and security. 

Numerous cloud services provide strong backup and recovery options, reducing downtime in the event of data loss. 

It streamlines IT resource management, enabling teams to concentrate on strategic projects instead of daily upkeep. 

Cloud security issues

There are multiple security issues in cloud computing, and there are hurdles to overcome to secure data and still be able to maintain operational reliability. In this article, we explore the main security concerns in cloud computing and the extent to which they could possibly harm businesses. 

Data loss

Data leakage has been a serious issue in cloud computing. Well, that is true, but only if our sensitive data is being taken care of by someone else whom we cannot trust absolutely, and just the opposite.

Therefore, if cloud service security is going to be baked by a hacker, then hackers can surely get a hold of our sensitive data or personal files. 

Insecure APIs

APIs are the easiest way to talk about the Cloud and need protection. Moreover, as third-party access public clouds, they too can be vulnerabilities to a cloud.

To secure these APIs, implementing SSL certificates is crucial, as they encrypt data in transit, making it harder for hackers to intercept sensitive information. Without this layer of security, attackers can exploit weaknesses in the API, leading to unauthorized access or data loss.  

Account hijacking

The most serious and pressing security threat out of myriads of cloud computing is account hijacking. Once a hacker compromises or hijacks the Account of a User or an Organization, he can access all unauthorized accounts and other activities. 

Change of service provider

Change of service provider is also an important Security issue in Cloud Computing. Many organizations will face different problems like data shifting and different charges for each vendor while shifting from one vendor to another. 

Skill gap 

The biggest problem with IT Companies that do not have skilled Employees is the need to shift to another service provider while working, another feature required, how to use a feature, and so on. Therefore, it requires an extremely skilled person to work in cloud computing. 

Insider threat

On the face of it, this would come out unlikely, but in reality, cloud security threats are those insiders that pose a serious threat to the organizations that avail cloud-based services.

These persons with authorized access to the most needed company resources may indulge in some forms of misconduct, either intentional or unintentional, which will lead to the misuse of their sensitive data. Sensitive data will include client accounts and all critical financial information. 

The important fact to be considered is that the threats from within in cloud security are likely to come through either malicious intent or unintended and just plain negligence. Most such threats can mature into serious violations of security if they develop further and can thereby put sensitive data at risk.

To fight effectively such insider threats while maintaining, at the same time, the confidentiality of data being protected and stored in the cloud, access control must be proper, along with tight and strict access controls.  

Moreover, full training courses including minute details about security should be provided to every member of the staff. In this regard also, monitoring should be done periodically. It is these aspects that have been the main reasons for protection against internal threats that may go about happening. 

Malware injection

The most potent cloud security threats are malware injections. Evil code is concealed in the guise of legitimate code in cloud services. The attacks compromise data integrity because malignant options allow attackers to eavesdrop, modify information, and escape data without detection.

It has become essential to secure the data from eavesdropping in cloud computing and security is an essential aspect. This has become a serious threat to the security of the cloud environment; it should be counter-attacked through careful vigilance and robust security to avoid access to the cloud infrastructure.

Misconfiguration

Indeed, misconfigurations in cloud security settings have proved to be one of the leading and most common causes of data breaches in the present-day digital, and these incidents are mostly the offspring of less-than-perfect practices about managing an effective posture of security.

The user-friendly nature of cloud infrastructure, set up primarily to allow easy exchange and interaction of data, poses significant hurdles to directing access of the data to only a targeted entity or personnel. 

Data storage issue 

This distributed cloud infrastructure is spread all over the globe. Sometimes it tends to keep user data outside the jurisdictions of the legal frameworks of certain regions, raising the range of such data among local law enforcement and regulations. The user dreads its violation because the notion of a cloud makes it difficult to identify one server in the process of transferring data overseas. 

Shared infrastructure security concerns

Multi-tenancy is the sharing of resources, storage, applications, and services from one platform with many at the cloud provider’s site. This tends to enable the provider to recoup high returns on investment but puts the customer at risk. Hence, an attacker can use multi-homing options to make a successful attack against the remaining co-tenants. This has a privacy problem. 

Conclusion 

The business world is changing rapidly, and the rise of cloud computing has created huge security and privacy concerns. In the cloud, there are many issues, such as multiple users sharing the same infrastructure and relying on third parties. These make data vulnerable.

Organizations must be proactive to protect data. They need strong encryption, controlled access, regular security audits, and a clear understanding of their shared responsibility with cloud providers.

11/13/2024:

Since my last post, many things have happened, as always. I'm not sure if I mentioned in any of my posts that my supervisor added me to a list of promotions. I was happy when she told me this and well it was a long wait and process. At the end of last month, I got the news and got promoted to Senior agent. I got noticed my actions and that is why I was added to the list. I didn't do anything different with any of my actions and I just keep asking questions and writing notes down of changes. I also got my certificate from a course my supervisor signed me up for called Lean Six Sigma, which I never heard of before this but it's very educational in learning how to break down a problem with different methods to get to a solution. There are different levels of this Lean Six Sigma, but I got my Yellow Belt Certificate.

My husband also got a job at the beginning of this month. We both were taking an Electrical class our community pantry church provides. It showed us the basics of installation of outlets, GFCI outlets, wiring and a bit more of that. We took it towards the middle of September and it ended in the beginning of November and we went every Saturday for it. We graduated and got a certificate for it and at the same day, my husband got offered a job from one of our instructors. It's something out of his norm and he has been wanting to get out of the IT field and go into a different career path. The IT field has not been stable and it may continue from what he has seen. This will be a great new path for him and he just needs to adjust to it. So since then I've been home alone and still working from home. They also offer a plumbing class there and we are planning on taking it when available again. It doesn't hurt to learn new skills especially that will help around the house.

Since he got a new job, our schedule has changed when we wake up and the tasks we do around the house before I clock in. We wake up earlier during the week and go to sleep earlier. Our stray cats do still get attended to and some do still show up. We have noticed that some have not come by much or at all. Calypso, Drox, Sherbet, TJ and Cleo have left the crowd and it makes me sad every time I look out our windows and not see them. We also gained kittens from Salt, 4 total, and Pepper also 4 total, and their mother Callie had 5 total. As of last night, we finally saw Juniors' kittens and she had 3 total. Indoors we gained another kitten which was Salts' baby and we named her Mittens. She's happy, healthy and at times a troublemaker. We got 6 cats total now indoors and that is our limit. Alas, they get attended earlier than before and before bedtime as well.

Since we wake up early, I have some time before I clock in to work. I decided to make a list of things I want to organize around the house and do. So far I have done 4, if not 5 tasks completed that were on my list. There are more, but some will need to wait for the weekend for my husband to help. Not only that I have decided to make and sell calendars with the photos I took. I did it last year and decided to do it again and I got people already asking to buy a copy. I'm hoping we can travel more than we did this year, but next year. I didn't get to photograph much this year, nor mainly had the ambition and I don't want to loose that. I need to find ways and places to use my drone and get better photos with it. I'm also hoping that we can do something different and big next year for our anniversary. It will be our 10 year one and I want it to be special. We shall see how the new year goes. Until next time, which might be the new year!

Here’s what I earn and sell at my farm stand

I opened my farm stand only 3-months ago and have been blown away by its income potential in such a short amount of time. I can’t even imagine what I could be earning from it in 2025! For those new to farming, I believe this is one of the fastest ways to get a little cash flowing. You don’t need a big fancy stand, either. You don’t even need a stand! From my experience, people WANT to shop local…
