As the need to carefully handle the complex IT systems and services in enterprises increases, the significance of cloud governance also increases. The enterprise governance solution will comprise of the following measures:
• Access Controls: Deploy role-based access control (RBAC) to accommodate specific levels of access across the design, development and QA teams. Apply access limitations to cloud resources for both internal and external teams. The internal policies practised thus far can be extended to the cloud. The clients in a multi-tenant environment must be clearly separated with no interdependencies.
• Financial Controls: Tracking cloud expenditure can be done by recording the cost involved each time a new resource is provisioned across the cloud. The cost can be limited when a hard cap is reached.
• Key Management and Encryption: While the encrypted data stays with the service provider, access to the encryption key, credentials and other security keys must be restricted.
• Logging and Auditing: All activities pertaining to the cloud must be logged. Auditing of all entries based on the user must be monitored and managed by using a reporting system.
• API Integration: Application Programming Interface (API) is a tool used to connect two programs with no previous knowledge or interference. API integration in cloud governance refers to easy integration with monitoring, service ticketing and other significant operations to enhance the level of governance across the enterprise.
