Cybercriminals use various ways to acquire illegal access and exfiltrate sensitive data, such as exploiting software flaws, phishing assaults, or using compromised credentials. Anyone with sensitive data stored in the cloud is vulnerable in the event of data breach, so enforce strong encryption, authentication, and patching measures.

Authentication guarantees that users are who they say they are, typically through usernames and passwords or multi-factor authentication (MFA). Authorization governs what activities users are permitted to take after being authenticated. To enhance security in a public cloud environment: Use strong authentication.

Unfortunately, bad actors will weaponize deepfake technology for fraud as biometric-based authentication solutions are widely adopted. While AI increasingly gets used to automate repetitive tasks, improve security and identify vulnerabilities, hackers will in turn build their own ML tools to target these processes.
