Multi-Cloud Security

Definitions

1. The protection of workloads, identities, networks, and data spread across more than one cloud provider. Multi-cloud security is difficult because each platform has different identity models, logging formats, policy controls, and misconfiguration patterns.

   In plain English: Security for systems and data spread across multiple cloud providers.

   Example: "Their multi-cloud security program standardized identity, logging, and secret management across AWS and Azure before onboarding GCP."
