NEXT-GENERATION CLOUD SECURITY: ARCHITECTING MULTI-LAYERED DEFENSES WITH AWS, GOOGLE CHRONICLE, CRIBL, AND SPLUNK

Abstract

The rapid adoption of cloud computing has introduced new security challenges, necessitating the implementation of next-generation, multi-layered defense strategies. This article explores the integration of leading cloud security platforms, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Chronicle, Cribl, and Splunk, to create a comprehensive and unified security ecosystem. By leveraging the unique capabilities of each platform, organizations can effectively address the evolving threat landscape and protect their cloud assets. The article discusses key components of a multi-layered defense approach, such as network security, endpoint protection, identity and access management, threat detection, and incident response. It also examines the role of advanced technologies, including machine learning and AI-driven analytics, in enhancing threat detection and mitigation capabilities. Real-world case studies demonstrate the successful implementation of multi-layered defense and automated incident response strategies. The article concludes by highlighting future trends and developments in cloud security, emphasizing the importance of adopting proactive and adaptive security measures to stay ahead of emerging threats.
