This includes keeping data private and safe across online-based infra structure\, applications\, and platforms. It is a collection of procedures and technologies involving the cloud service providers and the clients th at use them to address external and internal threats to business security. \n\nCloud providers host services on their servers through always-on conne ctions. Since their business relies on customer trust\, cloud security met hods are used to keep client data private and safely stored. However\, clo ud security also partially rests in the client's hands as well. Understand ing both facets is pivotal to a successful cloud security solution.\n\nAt its core\, cloud security is composed of the following categories:\n\n- In frastructure security\n- Data security\n- Identity and access management ( IAM)\n- Governance (policies on threat prevention\, detection\, and mitiga tion)\n- Data retention (DR) and business continuity (BC) planning\n- Lega l compliance\n\nAs enterprises embrace cloud services and move toward opti mizing their operational approach\, new challenges arise when balancing pr oductivity levels and security. While more modern technologies help organi zations advance capabilities outside the confines of on-premise infrastruc ture\, transitioning primarily to cloud-based environments can have severa l implications if not done securely.\n\nStriking the right balance require s an understanding of how modern-day enterprises can benefit from the use of interconnected cloud technologies while deploying the best cloud securi ty practices.\n\nBio data of Speaker: Sri. Chandra Sekhar\,\n\nBrief Bio o f C Chandrasekhara Reddy\, Scientist-G\, Group Director\, NRSC/ISRO (Retd) \, received his B. Tech from Nagarjuna University in 1986 in Electronics a nd Communications Engineering with Distinction and he is class topper. Rec eived his MS in Software Systems from BITS\, PILANI with distinction in 19 97.Joined SHAR\, ISRO in 1987\, where he designed and developed Software f or Radars to track all the launch vehicles. Designed and Developed Softwar e for Health monitoring of Launch Vehicle motors during the Launch. He mov ed to NRSC in 1993 and worked till Aug\, 2022.He retired as Group Director \, in Scientist 'G' grade. Established the Campus Network for NRSC\, Balan agar to provide email and Internet services in 1997 and ensured its 24 x 7 availability.\n\nWorked as Executive Director for Institute of Electronic Governance (IEG) under Information Technology and Communications Dept. (I T&C) Govt. of Andhra Pradesh in 2005-2006 on deputation. Implemented multi faceted e-governance solutions and worked towards self-sustenance of IEG w hich had a strength of about 800 employees under IT&C Dept. Govt. of AP in 2005-2006.He was Technical Committee Member for Major Projects of IT&C De pt. Govt. of AP from 2007 to 2009. He was an advisor in CMO and Technical Committee member for the iris based Ration Card Project from 2007 to 2009. The successful implementation of this project resulted in savings of arou nd Rs 1000 crore per annum to the Govt. of Andhra Pradesh. As this project was successful\, the iris technology was adopted in Adhar card project by Govt. of India.\n\nAs IT Infrastructure focal point\, designed and implem ented BHUVAN portal\, which was launched in August 2009. Later implemented Bhuvan Scaleup IT Infrastructure as well. Established 1000 Sq. Mts State of the Art Data Center at Shadnagar Campus with the centralized tiered Sto rage Area Network for Integrated Multi Mission Ground Segment for earth Ob servation Satellites (IMGEOS). Ensured the availability of IT infrastructu re for all the IRS Satellites launched after 2010 at the IMGEOS Data Cente r\, enabling supply of Emergency Data Products with in one Hour of Data Ac quisition. Conceived and conceptualized an Event monitoring and control me chanism for IMGEOS to monitor the data products generation in the producti on chain. In the process of adopting latest technologies\, designed and im plemented on-premise private cloud to process RISAT data and on-premise pu blic cloud to meet the Infrastructure requirements to disseminate the data products\, Bhoonodhi etc in the Data Center in 2018. The cloud is being e xtended to adopt containerisation. The resource optimization has increased by 50 %\, because of the cloud technology. Contributed in the design and implementation of IT Infrastructure for the Disaster Management Support Pr ogramme of Minnistry of Home Affairs\, Govt. of India. Extended the Data C enter at NRSC/ISRO Shadnagar Campus by another 2000 Sq. Mts. Also involved in establishing Data Centers for Govt. of AP at Hyderabad\, DRDO and NGRI . Established cloud based secure thin client remote access system at the O utreach Facility in Jeedimetla campus for remote sensing data analysis. Co nceptualized\, proposed and implemented a secure overlay Network for more than 3000 nodes and provided the services at nine campuses of NRSC. He con verged services such as mail\, video\, telepresence\, audio and chat\, whi ch are being provided to the users. Implemented Network based Unified Comm unications converged services across all the Campuses of NRSC\, which was used extensively during Covid-19 period. In the process removed all tradit ional telephone exchanges. As Information Security Officer of NRSC for abo ut 15 years\, ensured the security of IT Infrastructure and data. As a mem ber of inter-center IT security committee for ISRO\, participated in the c ommittee meetings and contributed in providing detailed recommendations\, guidelines\, operational procedures\, tools and techniques to improve the IT security in ISRO Centers / Units and implemented in one of the Centres of ISRO. Implemented Security Operations and Network Operations Center at Shadnagar for NRSC/ISRO (9 Locations Across India) including SIEM/SOAR. As a Chairman\, Flight Readiness Review Committee for Real Time Networks\, e nsuring the readiness of Ground Segment Infrastructure at SHAR for LVM3 (L aunch Vehicle Mark 3)\, PSLV and SSLV Launches and also Post Flight Analys is. In his illustrious career\, he has been bestowed with ISRO Team Excell ence awards for IMGEOS and Bhuvan projects.\n\nFeel Free to contact at Sai kumar9@ieee.org\,\n\nSaikumar Tara\, SAC Chair\, IEEE Hyderabad Section.\n \nK M M Rao\, Chair\, LMAG\, IEEE Hyderabad Section\n\nM A Jabbar\, Chair\ , CS\, IEEE Hyderabad Section\n\nMousami Ajay Chourasia\, Chair\, CIS/GRSS Jt Chapter\, IEEE Hyderabad Section\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.iee e.org/m/336305 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/336305 ORGANIZER:mousmi.ksu@ieee.org SEQUENCE:0 SUMMARY:A WEBINAR ON "CYBER SECURITY ISSUES IN MULTI CLOUD ENVIRONMENT AND ITS PROTECTION" by IEEE CISGRSS Hyderabad Section URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/336305 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>A Webinar on "Cyber Security issues in mul ti cloud environment and its protection" on 12th Nov 2022 at 6:30 PM onwar ds in association with SAC\, LMAG\, CS\, CIS/GRSS Jt Chapter.</p>\n<p>Abst ract:&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Cloud security is a discipline of cyber security dedi cated to securing cloud computing systems.&nbsp\; This includes keeping da ta private and safe across online-based infrastructure\, applications\, an d platforms.
