The rise in cloud adoption has made it imperative for more businesses to rely on cloud providers to store, access, and manage their data and applications. While running applications and services in the cloud offers much-needed flexibility and scalability, it also introduces new security challenges.

The purpose of this Cloud Access Security Broker Policy, created by Franklin Okeke for TechRepublic Premium. is to establish guidelines and procedures for the secure and efficient use of cloud-based services. This policy aims to mitigate risks associated with cloud adoption, protect sensitive data, ensure compliance with relevant regulations, and promote best practices for CASB deployment and usage.

Featured text from the policy:

CASB IMPLEMENTATION

Monitoring and management: [Your company name] will implement a CASB solution to continuously monitor, manage, and secure cloud service usage. This solution will provide real-time visibility into cloud service usage, including the applications and activities employees engage in within cloud environments.

Policy enforcement: The CASB solution will help enforce security policies, such as access control policies, data loss prevention policies, and encryption policies. It will automatically detect and respond to policy violations to maintain the security and compliance of cloud services.

Updates and maintenance: The CASB solution will be regularly updated to address emerging threats, vulnerabilities, and new features in cloud services. Maintenance and updates will be performed to ensure the ongoing effectiveness of CASB controls.
