- b"The Cloud Security Alliance (CSA), the world\xe2\x80\x99s leading organization dedicated to defining standards, certifications, and best practices to help ensure a secure cloud computing environment, today announced the release of the Enterprise Architecture Reference Guide v2 .
- Developed by the CSA Enterprise Architecture Working Group (EAWG), the reference guide provides users with a compilation of every domain and container within the CSA Enterprise Architecture v2.3 , a comprehensive approach for the architecture of a secure, identity-aware cloud infrastructure.\n\xe2\x80\x9cThis reference guide is fundamentally important for risk managers in evaluating opportunities for improvement, creating road maps for technology adoption, identifying reusable security patterns, and assessing various cloud providers and security technology vendors against a common set of capabilities and serves as a launchpad for upcoming EAWG releases, including a CSA Cloud Controls Matrix to Enterprise Architecture mapping and a refresh to the Enterprise Architecture itself,\xe2\x80\x9d said Jon-Michael C. Brook, a lead author and Enterprise Architecture Working Group co-chair.\nThe CSA Enterprise Architecture Reference Guide is both a methodology and a set of tools that enable security architects, enterprise architects, and risk management professionals to leverage a common set of solutions that allow them to assess where their internal IT and their cloud providers are in terms of security capabilities and to plan a roadmap to meet the security needs of their business.
- From there, users can easily determine what warrants further investment based on the business needs of the company,\xe2\x80\x9d said Michael Roza, a lead author and Enterprise Architecture Working Group co-chair.\nThe Enterprise Architecture Working Group closely follows the CCM working group in order to map the architecture components that help enterprises identify critical elements that are key to their cloud security architecture.
