Hackers won\u2019t be able to open your cloud files even if they\u2019ve stolen your credentials. To log in to an account with 2FA activated, you need your password and another code from your phone or an application.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Test, Test, Test Your <\/b><b>Cloud Environment<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve built your cloud solution, test it routinely. There are many <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">security tools<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> you can use to check your infrastructure for vulnerabilities. Misconfiguration testing, vulnerability tests, and penetration testing probe your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">data and applications<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for weaknesses and provide valuable feedback you can use to improve your defenses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some tools even allow your IT professionals to launch a simulated attack on your organization\u2019s <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">data center<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">s, meaning you can see in real-time how an attack might affect your security posture and identify ways to address the issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Closely Monitor Your Data<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should continually monitor your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cloud environment<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> so you\u2019ll know the moment something is wrong. Look out for unauthorized edits to files, configuration changes, or lapses in compliance. If you detect a security breach early enough, you can contain the issue quickly and mitigate any long-term damage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Have a Data Backup Plan<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">data center<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is safe without a backup plan. A data backup strategy protects your business from permanent <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">data loss<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, while an effective security platform allows you to enforce data protection policies across your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cloud services<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
