Re: Request: Cloud multi-tenancy environment assessment resources

Hello Dimitrios

I hate to take the easy way out, but I would suggest checking out the
CSA (Cloud Security Alliance) guidance, they have a lot of good
reference materials: https://cloudsecurityalliance.org/

Their latest guidance has become a bit bloated IMHO, but it is still very good.

To state the obvious, if security matters, you need to design your
implementations as if they are running on untrustworthy hardware.
Because they are.  Control your own crypto, manage your own keys,
instrument and monitor, firewall like mad, etc.

Hi All,

I'm looking for any resources you may be able to provide regarding assessing
cloud multi-tenancy environments. I understand that many of the controls
tested when assessing a data center, network, or application would still
apply, however is there anything to keep in mind?

Regards.
