\"segregation\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Nothing wrong<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Data needs privacy and security.<\/h3>\n

Hence,<\/p>\n

There\u00a0 is nothing wrong with Data<\/em> segregation.<\/h2>\n

Smile. I hate bad grammar too.<\/em><\/p>\n

In a previous post entitled, “Every Relationship Needs A Little SSL<\/a>,”<\/a> we discussed the mechanism of how to achieve the integrity of your data.<\/p>\n

Now we continue our series with\u00a0 how SSL works<\/em> to provide a bridge to secure Data in the Cloud.<\/p>\n

If you’re like me, you probably respect and revere Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.<\/h3>\n

But we both know that when it comes to our data, holding hands and singing Kumbaya is just not the route to take.<\/p>\n

Not if you want to stay employed.<\/p>\n

Back to that in a moment.<\/p>\n

Did you know that there is an ongoing feud over who owns the rights to the Kumbaya lyrics. Frey claims he is the owner, but:<\/p>\n

In<\/span> Gullah,<\/span> “Kumbaya”<\/span> means<\/span> “Come<\/span> by<\/span> here”,<\/span> so<\/span> the<\/span> lyric<\/span> could<\/span> be<\/span> translated<\/span> as<\/span> “Come<\/span> by<\/span> here,<\/span> my<\/span> lord,<\/span> come<\/span> by<\/span> here.<\/span> Another<\/span> version<\/span> was<\/span> preserved<\/span> on<\/span> a<\/span> <\/span> wax cylinder<\/a>\u00a0in<\/span> May<\/span> 1936<\/span> by<\/span> <\/span>Robert Winslow Gordon<\/a>, founder<\/span> of<\/span> what<\/span> became<\/span> the<\/span> <\/span>American Folklife Center<\/a>.

I think<\/em> they were struggling with\u00a0 Data Segregation and Secure Access.<\/p>\n

There are three elements for ensuring\u00a0 Data Segregation and Secure Access.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n
    Encryption<\/strong><\/address>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \n
    Authentication<\/strong><\/address>\n<\/li>\n
  3. \n
    Certificate Validity<\/strong><\/address>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Encryption relaxes me because it insists that you should mind your own business. And that without the proper decryption tool, my business does not become yours without my permission.<\/p>\n

    But in the Cloud, all encryption is not equal.<\/h3>\n

    Businesses should require that their cloud provider use a combination of SSL and servers that support, at minimum, 128-bit encryption.<\/p>\n

    But if you want to sleep well at night, go all out and use the stronger 256-bit encryption.<\/p>\n

    Additionally businesses should also demand that server ownership be authenticated before one iota of data transfers between servers.<\/p>\n

    But be careful,<\/p>\n

    Self-assigned SSL certificates provide no authentication.\u00a0 Take Michelle Pfieffer’s advice from Scarface.<\/p>\n

    ‘Don’t get high on your own supply.’<\/em><\/h3>\n

    Only, independent, third-party SSL\u00a0 certificates delivers legitimate ownership authentication. This makes it impossible to establish a rogue server that can infiltrate the cloud provider’s environment.<\/p>\n

    Furthermore, as far as certificate validity is concerned, once a server and domain are authenticated, the SSL certificate issued to that device will be valid for a defined length of time.<\/p>\n

    In the rare case that an SSL certificate has been compromised in some way, there is a fail-safe check to verify that the certificate has not been revoked in the time since it was originally issued. Every time an SSL handshake is initiated, the SSL certificate is checked against a current database of revoked certificates.<\/p>\n

    In life and especially in the Cloud, you must check what you expect.<\/p>\n
