When it comes to managing AWS cloud security, a growing concern for security operations (SecOps teams) is the increasing sophistication of digital threats. While conventional cyber threats deploy widely known tools and techniques in crude, all-or-nothing attempts to breach enterprise security controls, sophisticated attacks known as Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) employ more advanced technologies and methods to gain and maintain access to secure systems for long periods of time.

Cloud computing shapes the ability of enterprises to transform themselves and effectively compete. By renting elastic cloud resources, enterprises can support new customer platforms, distributed workforces, and back-office operations. The cross-functional discipline of CloudOps helps enterprises manage cloud resources by optimizing applications and infrastructure.
