Cloud computing has become integral to modern business and government operations, offering scalability, flexibility, and efficiency. However, the adoption of cloud services introduces new cybersecurity challenges and vulnerabilities, especially in the current growth of artificial intelligence. This simulation aims to enhance comprehension of the multifaceted challenges in securing cloud environments, facilitating the development and testing of proactive strategies to mitigate cloud security risks effectively. Insights derived from this simulation will empower organizations to fortify their cloud security posture, implement best practices, enhance incident response capabilities, and proactively defend against evolving cyber threats targeting cloud infrastructures. Ultimately, this simulation contributes to strengthening the resilience of organizations in safeguarding critical data, applications, and operations hosted in cloud environments, fostering trust and reliability in leveraging the benefits of cloud computing securely within the ever-evolving cyber landscape.
