From Preface
The content of the book is segregated into three parts. The first section is designed to help the audience set the stage and understand the real need to have this transformation journey. This section will primarily focus on the conceptual understanding of cloud security and how this will go with your business.
The next section is primarily meant for technical people, architects, and practitioners, but will certainly help the readers who are getting into the cloud and cloud security space by delving into an in-depth approach to adopting and
