Introduction
With the growth of an era where content and other
files are being stored on the platform of Cloud
and Cloud Services are being used more often, it
is essential as an individual or a business
enterprise that Artificial Intelligence is also
at its peak of advancements. With that being
said, it is essential to know that Artificial
intelligence or better known as AI is known
better for its adaptations in various areas, one
of the best areas of growth has been in terms of
AI-Driven Cloud Services which has had a better
benefit for several business enterprises as well
as individuals around the globe. This has
invariably allowed cloud making AI accessible to
individuals around the globe and companies
functioning in the niche of AI-Driven Cloud
Solutions. This is an infrastructure that
basically provides challenges in terms of Cloud
Security and affordability to build such an
infrastructure. In this article, we would be
discussing topics and how it would help you as an
individual that could be very informative in
terms of Cloud Security and Cloud Services. This
is vital in terms of having an AI-Driven Cloud
Security carries a number in terms of the
importance that it carries in the long run.

A Sneak Peek into AI-Powered Cloud Security
With that being said, one major question that
arises when you hear AI-powered Cloud security is
what is it and how does it concern us? In this
segment, AI-Powered Cloud security is a concept
that is to be known better for a better
understanding and conceptualization. We as
individuals do know that moving data to
cloud-based solutions and platforms do come with
various advantages of having a space to store
information but also comes with an added threat
that needs to be addressed. It is needless to say
that Cloud Security is completely different as
compared to traditional security concerns that
come up and the principles applied to both or it
could be quite different. It is important to
understand that currently several organizations
around the world typically use a combination of
cloud services and traditional IT and due to the
same reason, there are security solutions that
are required to protect both- cloud services as
well as the traditional IT that companies use.
With the growth of usage of the cloud services,
the security controls that are currently being
used across the world for the data centers may
not be suitable for the new threats and
challenges that they would face in the coming
times and hence big data, regulatory, and
compliance requirements and individuals with
necessary skills that could be incorporated into
the security teams all together add up to the
additional costs and complexity of security
solutions of any company.

Cloud Security
One very important good news that could be shared
is that there are several security solutions that
could be used and are available to address the
challenges and threats that can quite to an
extend solve problems of cloud security. In an
ideal situation, an organization would want a
security solution that would focus and aim at
reducing workload over their security team and
the training time involved to have a fair
knowledge and support the solution better. Having
a balance and difference between traditional
security and cloud security is a critical concept
to come down to ensure finding the correct
security solution. Therefore, to answer the
basic question that may arise is why is cloud
security important and what is cloud security?
With that cloud security basically involves all
the technologically and organization based
solutions and policies and controls that ensure
the security of a cloud platform and solution.
This basically ensures that the purpose of
ensuring the safety of data and the cloud
architecture in itself is secure and has several
governing policies in place. However, it is also
important for you to understand that this would
depend on your business requirements and would
result in having a cloud provider that would
cater to the cloud security solutions that they
would provide. Moreover, it would be a joint
responsibility of the business and the service
provider of the cloud security provider to ensure
that the data and files that the company saves,
is a joint effort.

Considering that, a few objectives of cyber
security that you would want to consider are

•    Protecting your data including the
  intellectual properties (IP) overcloud.
•   Ensuring that privacy and private personal
  information of your client, customers, and your
  staff are protected and ensured that it is not
  leaked.
•   It ensures that you have a system in place that
  ensures all the regulatory protocols and other
  regulations are in place that you would have to
  adhere to
•   Proper rules and regulations are followed in
  terms of authenticating devices and users who are
  accessing the cloud network to ensure necessary
  precautions and prevention methodologies are
  used.
• Therefore, cloud security is exactly used and can
  be custom-made and tailored according to the
  business requirements and ensures you can cover
  numerous nuances and authentication of users time
  and again and also restricting individuals and
  users that could be malicious or suspicious. The
  rules and regulations could be tailored and
  carried out in a manner that would involve only
  from a single node which will enable you to focus
  more on your business.

Importance
Growth in the usage of AI-Driven Cloud Solutions,
it is also essential to understand why cloud
security is important. Discussing a few key
important reasons why cloud security is essential
are given below a) Visibility With visibility
being one of the major challenges that are faced
in cloud-based solutions, it is important to
ensure that the visibility in terms of
micro-servers, containers, and server less is
secure. This is because a traditional IT solution
does not have the ability to view activity within
a container and other events across micro servers
and hence leaving you to blind threats. Thus,
cloud security is built in such a way that you
could see these blind spots and purposefully
built to protect you against them. b) Ensures
scalability and elasticity cloud security systems
ensure you are computing environments that are
dynamic and on a temporary basis. Thus, to keep
up with the changes that are in scale as well as
demand, cloud security ensures you are agile,
elastic, and have scalable capabilities to
protect you from potential threats.

c) SAAS for true cloud securityHaving a Saabs
model for cloud security ensures you have a
benefit of the software vendor that is
responsible for the service stack that you own
and thus making you responsible for the entire
software stack. This would give you an advantage
in terms of having control over the operating
system to the application involved.It provides
an overall and a holistic view of the threat that
may occur to the files and documents that are
saved and hence ensuring that you have control
over the system through cloud security.d) IAAS
for risk controlInfrastructure as a service is
one of the models that help in controlling the
cloud security. This is one of the AI-driven
cloud security which has potentially helped in
covering risks that may be caused due to insecure
configuration or misconfiguration that may be
caused for storage assets, services, instances,
etc, and are heavily available in the
cloud.Therefore, to ensure that you have proper
cloud-security, it requires cloud-native security
solutions which can be concise into the
followinga) As mentioned above, visibility in
terms of having clarity and visibility into micro
servers and containers which are importantb)
You must be able to monitor your workload data
and analyze the momentary, dynamic and temporary
threatsc) Having a true Saabs software solution
to monitor any kind of threat relating to the
cloud.

Conclusion
Knowing the fact that with the growth in
AI-Driven Cloud usage, its security is important.
Since many organizations are shifting to the
cloud for the exact same reasons, it is important
that you have a changing and dynamic security
model that can help in the constantly changing
cloud environment which is by design. This
majorly has to do with the micro servers,
containers, and server less computing which may
require management involvement and a separate
team that would deal with the server provider
interaction. With dynamic changes in
technologies, it is important to have a cloud
security system that is used against the threats
and can function against the hyper scalability
and the dynamics of cloud solutions and this is
where traditional IT security may not
function. Therefore, cloud security in todays
era is considered to be a necessity. With being
designed in a way that cloud security ensures you
can understand and have a correct response to the
dynamic variations and aspects of cloud computing
and solutions, you could involve data used in
containers that are not possible with regards to
a traditional security method that would not
function and exist. Cloud security can be
considered as one of the methods that are very
effective in terms of securing resources that an
organization would put out onto the cloud
services and their computing environments.
