Here are a couple suggestions:<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"main-subtitle-black\">Manage permissions<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Secure user permissions are the first line of defense against data breaches, just as locked doors and windows deter would-be burglars. But manually authorizing, tracking, and deprovisioning access can be difficult considering the sheer amount of your dispersed cloud resources. Cloud automation tools can streamline this process by allowing you to create permissions based on roles, enable multi-factor authentication (MFA), and require regular password rotation. You can even identify overly permissive user and service accounts using cloud automation.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"main-subtitle-black\">Infrastructure as code<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Think of the difference between manually building security infrastructure and using infrastructure as code (IaC) like a weekend handyman building a house from the ground up versus a professional builder. The handyman could learn along the way and hopefully build something secure, but this will waste a lot of time, resources, and money. A builder comes in with a plan and the resources to lay a strong foundation. Similarly, IaC quickly establishes the strong foundation for developers to build upon, instead of the time-consuming alternative of manually building and configuring the infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"main-subtitle-black\">Virtual patching<\/span><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no such thing as being 100% secure. Sooner or later, something will slip through the cracks. When it does, automated identification and remediation will limit the impact to ensure you remain compliant. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/devops\/21\/l\/virtual-patching-101.html\">Virtual patching<\/a> can be automatically applied to known and unknown vulnerabilities on affected servers and endpoints before the vendor patch is released. This saves you from countless hours\u2014and potential system downtime\u2014spent trying to manually locate and patch everything yourself.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"main-subtitle-black\">Choose your fighter: Cloud automation tools<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image\">\n<figure class=\"image-figure\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/content\/dam\/trendmicro\/global\/en\/devops\/23\/d\/cloud-automation-benefits\/cloud-automation-benefits-4.png\" alt=\"Automation Tools\"> <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"richText\" readability=\"40.798170224563\">\n<div readability=\"27.526476296091\">\n<p>As we\u2019ve reiterated throughout this series, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/devops\/21\/e\/secure-cloud-migration-101.html\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">cybersecurity platform solution<\/a> is ideal, but these solutions are not all equal. Your tool of choice should be able to handle the specific use cases we listed (permissions, IaC, and remediation) as well as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\"><span class=\"rte-red-text\">Discovery of workloads and cloud infrastructure<\/span> across all the major cloud service providers (CSPs), including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform\u2122.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\"><span class=\"rte-red-text\">Continuous scanning and monitoring<\/span> of IaC templates, instances, applications, cloud file storage, cloud networks, and everything in between for vulnerabilities, malware, and compliance risks. Yes, we already mentioned <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/devops\/21\/c\/maintain-file-security-during-compliance-scanning.html\">compliance scanning<\/a> in this article, but it\u2019s so important it deserves mentioning (at least) twice. Automated scanning should also generate relevant reports, logs, and alerts, so anything unusual can be quickly brought to your attention.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\"><span class=\"rte-red-text\">Detection and remediation<\/span> of known and unknown vulnerabilities or risks to minimize disruption to workflows.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\"><span class=\"rte-red-text\">Integration with your existing tool set<\/span> for automated security deployment, policy configuration and management, health checks, incident response, and more.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"main-subtitle-black\">Next steps<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Cloud automation is the key to a smooth and efficient cloud migration. Think of automation like the electricity in your home. Without power your dishwasher, laundry machines, and robotic vacuums are useless. After you\u2019ve put your security strategy together, incorporating cloud automation allows it to go from paper to practice.<\/p>\n<p>Trend Cloud One\u2122 is a security services platform compromised of eight solutions. Each solution is purpose-built for cloud builders to simplify their security approach while providing cutting-edge protection. Here\u2019s a look at how our solutions check all the boxes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\"><span class=\"rte-red-text\">Discovery of workloads and cloud infrastructure:<\/span> Trend Cloud One is optimized for DevOps thanks to strong API integration with Microsoft Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud. Workload Security automatically protects new and existing workloads across your mixed environment of virtual, physical, cloud, and containers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\"><span class=\"rte-red-text\">Continuous scanning and monitoring:<\/span><\/span>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"rte-circle-bullet\">Trend Cloud One provides continuous security, compliance, and governance checks against nearly 1,000 configuration best practices and nearly 100 services from major CSPs. Check IaC templates thanks to CloudFormation Template Scanning and run preconfigured or customized reports with an endless combination of filters. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-circle-bullet\">Trend Cloud One provides automated malware scanning whenever new files are uploaded to block known bad files and protect against malware variants. By scanning files of all sizes and types, DevOps teams\u2019 workflows remain uninterrupted and secure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\"><span class=\"rte-red-text\">Detection and remediation:<\/span> Trend Cloud One deploys without disruption or need to rearchitect and immediately inspects ingress and egress traffic. It also includes virtual patching and post-compromise detection and disruption, so you\u2019re secured against all phases of the attack life cycle.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\"><span class=\"rte-red-text\">Integration with your existing tool set: <\/span>Thanks to powerful APIs, all eight solutions integrate seamlessly with your favorite communication, deployment, orchestration, cloud storage, and other tools from major CSPs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\"><span class=\"rte-red-text\">Managing permissions:<\/span> Automatically ensure your AWS Identity Access and Management (IAM) policies are enforced thanks to many IAM configuration checks.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\"><span class=\"rte-red-text\">Infrastructure as a code: <\/span>Ensure your IaC templates are secure and compliant via automated scans against industry best practices.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Simplify your cloud migration journey by experiencing the benefits of automation with a <a href=\"https:\/\/cloudone.trendmicro.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">free 30-day<\/a> trial of Trend Cloud One.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image\">\n<figure class=\"image-figure\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/content\/dam\/trendmicro\/global\/en\/devops\/23\/d\/cloud-automation-benefits\/cloud-automation-benefits-5.png\" alt=\"At A Glance: Trend Micro Cloud One\"> <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image\">\n<figure class=\"image-figure\"> <a id=\"devopsrc-446c27\" href=\"http:\/\/cloudone.trendmicro.com\/SignUp.screen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/content\/dam\/trendmicro\/global\/en\/devops\/trial-banners\/cloud-one-trial-banner.jpg\" alt=\"cloud-one-trial\"> <\/a> <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<section class=\"tag--list\">\n<p>Tags<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p> <\/main> <\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>   <\/p>\n<p> <span>sXpIBdPeKzI9PC2p0SWMpUSM2NSxWzPyXTMLlbXmYa0R20xk<\/span> <\/p>\n<p>   <\/body> Read More <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/devops\/23\/d\/cloud-automation-benefits.html\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn more about how cloud automation can simplify security controls, policies, and scans.
