The Cloud Security Rules: Technology is your friend. And enemy. A book about ruling the cloud.

by Kai Roer, Margaretha Eriksson, Alistar Forbes

The Cloud Security Rules explains the different aspects of cloud security to business leaders, CxO's, IT-managers and decision makers. The security principles are the same as before while the implementation and the risks involved are dramatically changed. The book is co-authored by some of the most recognized security specialists and bloggers in the world. The authors are gathered from USA, Europe and Africa, sharing their great knowledge of implementing and securing the cloud. This book is made to help it easier for you to choose the right cloud supplier as well as setting up and running your critical services in the cloud. Questions you will find answers about - Do I have to accept that standard SLA? - What should an SLA include? - What standards should I be paying attention to, if any? - How do I treat mobile workers, and how do they fit into the cloud? - Do I really need to care about logging? - Many more! Since the cloud computing is global, you risk using service providers in other countries than your own - even if you only operate in your own country. The Cloud Security Rules aims at helping you understand the risks involved, and help you determine the best strategy for your organization.
