Secure Cloud Deployment (AWS/Azure/GCP)

Welcome! In this lesson, we'll explore how to deploy your backend applications securely on major cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and GCP.

Moving to the cloud offers flexibility and scale, but it also introduces new security challenges. Understanding these is key to protecting your data and users.

A core concept in cloud security is the Shared Responsibility Model. It defines what the cloud provider secures and what you are responsible for.

• Cloud Provider: Secures the "cloud itself" (physical infrastructure, global network, virtualization).
• You: Secure your applications "in the cloud" (data, operating systems, network configuration, application code).

Understanding this balance is crucial for effective security.
