How the Financial Cloud Should Be Protected (A Presentation)

Last week our SVP of client technology, Steve Schoener, presented at a hedge fund due diligence event on the topic of protections in the cloud.

Since cloud security and ensuring a hedge fund’s data is protected is such a hot topic we thought we’d share his presentation. In a nutshell, the presentation looks at the layers of security that should be built into a cloud environment, which includes deep and detailed practices around:

1. Principle of Defense in Depth

2. Principle of Least Privilege

3. Audit & Logging

4. Secure User Authentication Protocols & Encryption
