You're transferring data between cloud platforms. How can you prevent potential data leakage risks?
Moving data across cloud services requires stringent security to prevent leakage. Here’s how you can protect your digital assets:
- **Employ robust encryption**: Use strong encryption protocols for data in transit and at rest.
- **Implement strict access controls**: Limit data access based on user roles and responsibilities.
- **Regularly audit transfers**: Keep track of all data movements to detect any unauthorized activity quickly.

Transferring data between cloud platforms like Azure and AWS can indeed pose some risks. To help prevent potential data leakage we may follow: Encrypt data both in transit and at rest. Azure and AWS offer built-in encryption services to secure data. IAM: Use IAM to control who has access to data. Apply the principle of least privilege. Secure Transfer: Use secure transfer methods like Azure Data Factory or AWS DataSync, which are designed to securely transfer data between cloud platforms. For transferring data from S3 to Azure Storage, AzCopy i have used. Authorize AWS S3: Set your AWS access key and secret access key as environment variables. Authorize with Azure Storage: Use Microsoft Entra ID or a Shared Access Signature (SAS) token.

To ensure the security of cloud data during transfers, I focus on these practical steps: Use end-to-end encryption: Always encrypt data before transferring and ensure the transfer channels (like HTTPS or SFTP) are secure. Enable multi-factor authentication (MFA): Add an extra layer of security to ensure only authorized users can initiate transfers. Limit access: Assign permissions only to people who truly need it, following the principle of least privilege. Monitor and log activity: Use tools to track transfers and set up alerts for unusual activity. Test backups: Regularly back up data and ensure backups work so you can recover in case of an incident.

Algumas medidas reduzem significativamente os riscos e garantem a proteção dos dados durante a migração entre plataformas de nuvem. Utilizar criptografia de ponta a ponta; Implementação de autenticação multifator, além de controle de permissões baseado em papéis; Proteção dos dados sensíveis, substituindo-os por tokens seguros durante a transferência; Garantir backups seguros, com avaliação da integridade dos dados. E garantir o correto processo de mudança.

For Google cloud GCP, we can use DLP (Data Loss Prevention) and if we don’t trust on Google’s encryption then we can use customer managed encrypted keys CMEK to secure the data at rest. Data in transit should always be encrypted via TLS and TKIP.
