16. Take a Realistic View of Cloud Risks
• Cloud services are not
inherently more or less secure
than traditional outsourcing.
• Map workloads and data to the
right "style" of cloud security.
• Adapt security processes to
address cloud computing.
• Separation of duties and
change control are key risks.
• Examine software and cloud-
based options to mitigate risks.
• Integrate cloud services into
situationally aware SIEM*.

17. Build a Cloud Services Sourcing
Capability
• Modify existing service procurement
processes to accommodate the
cloud.
• Focus negotiations on business
issues, not technical
implementations.
• Selectively review provider
implementation details.
• Service commitments are delivered
via standard self-service interfaces.
• Understand the real long-term
commitment behind SLA and price.
• Don't ignore hidden upfront costs.
• Develop contingency plans.

27. Think Like a Cloud Services Provider
• Focus on high-value targets.
• For the end user
• For the developer
• Everything is a platform.
• Public Web APIs are a key
component of your business
strategy.
• Build a public Web API as
part of next-generation AD
projects.
• Develop focused, cohesive
and loosely coupled
services.
• Make sure you get value,
even if nobody adopts it
externally.

31. Recommendations
Be proactive — the worst strategy is to ignore the cloud.
Develop selection criteria and governance models for each layer of the
cloud computing service hierarchy:
- Realistically assess risks and carefully embrace new trust models.
- Modify existing service procurement models, and build new cloud
governance, trust and security models.
Use a business impact analysis to determine when, where and why to
adopt cloud computing:
- Determine where migrating or enhancing applications deliver value.
- Consider innovation applications that benefit from unique cloud
capabilities.
Ensure that private cloud initiatives extend beyond virtualization to
address access, service and resource management.
Use external cloud brokers to reduce complexity and enhance
performance.
Position IT as a cloud service broker across internal and external
cloud services.
Coordinate cloud and mobile strategies.
