By leveraging the service capabilities of other agencies and industry, the Army will create capacity and allow commands to focus more resources on mission requirements and less on commodity information technology capabilities.

· Implementing and managing security protocols for cloud-based systems and data.

· Monitoring cloud systems for potential security breaches.

· Conduct risk assessments and vulnerability testing.

· Develop incident response plans.

· Remain up to date with the latest security threats and trends in cloud technology.
