Hacking the cloudCloudchasers 20: Hacking the cloud

Security remains a top concern for many enterprises as they consider moving workloads to the cloud.  On this week’s show we will be joined by two ethical hackers who will help us understand the real security risks cloud users face.  Is a cloud-based system more likely to be hacked than a virtualized or physical system? Are private clouds inherently more secure?  What specific hacks have occurred on the cloud and could they have been prevented?   

host Matthew T. Grant will explore the new security risks posed by the cloud with our guests:

Robert Beggs, CEO, DigitalDefence
