Is Cloud Host Secure

With the development of cloud computing, cloud is becoming more and more popular, and the application of cloud host in enterprises is also more and more extensive. cloud host is an important host equipment for enterprises, so it is necessary for users to know more about the security problems of cloud host. In this way, it is easier for service providers to carry out business and post maintenance work.

Although cloud host is based on the development of cloud computing, is it really safe? In addition to the security problems of traditional information systems, cloud computing also has new security threats due to its own characteristics. Cloud security issues deserve attention, but it does not mean that its security is not trustworthy. Only by understanding some security problems of virtual machine, can we make corresponding protection measures.

Then the possible security risks of cloud host mainly include:

The first is the vulnerability of the cloud host itself, such as vulnerabilities, configuration errors, port opening errors and so on. For the cloud host, the first thing to be solved is its vulnerability, especially the vulnerability. In addition, the inspection and monitoring of the key configuration and port of the server can solve the vulnerability problem of the cloud host to a certain extent by reducing the attack surface and mastering the security status of the system at any time.

The external threat is also the risk of cloud host. Common external threats include backdoor, Trojan horse, brute force attack and so on. In contrast, brute force cracking is still the biggest external network threat faced by cloud hosts. Brute force cracking protection needs to cover three levels, namely system, application and database. Any level of certainty and omission will increase the probability of system intrusion. On the other hand, the ability to quickly discover and remove viruses, Trojans and Backdoors on the virtual machine is also a major test of the cloud server protection ability.

Although the cloud host has some security risks, there is no tool without any risk factor in the world. The security performance of the cloud host is still higher than that of the traditional server. As long as the daily security deployment and maintenance is done well, the long-term efficient and stable operation can be ensured. Moreover, with the development of technology, the security strategy of virtual machine is constantly updated, not only in the protection of the improvement, but also in the way of security delivery.
