Cloud Expo New York $500 Savings here!
Regulation of consumer and corporate data is increasing in response to the growing movement into cloud service offerings. Coupled with high-profile intrusions by groups such as Anonymous and Lulzsec, the necessity for a standard way to assess the security of cloud service providers becomes apparent.
CloudAudit is an open standard developed by a Cloud Security Alliance working group that provides an open, common, extensible namespace and interface to enable cloud providers and authorized customers to automate audits, assertions, assessments and assurance for their cloud infrastructure, platform or application environments.
In his session at the 10th International Cloud Expo, Christopher MacGown, Co-Founder & CTO at Piston Cloud Computing, will look at the CloudAudit API and implementations.
