In an exciting expansion of their partnership, New Light Technologies (NLT) and Fugue offered a web-based training on the significant and urgent security threat posed by orphaned cloud resources.
Orphaned cloud resources, typically left over from development or maintenance, represent significant risks of misconfiguration and data breaches. A long-forgotten EC2 instance or VPC may contain OS vulnerabilities or overly permissive security group rules that attackers can use to gain access to your cloud environments.
In the webinar, an NLT Cloud Architect and Fugue's CTO and Founder:
- Explain what orphaned cloud resources are and why they are so pervasive
- Walk through the ways attackers can exploit orphaned resources to breach data
- Provide practical steps every cloud team can take to eliminate orphaned resources
