It eliminates the need for continuous integration.

Cloud Service Customers (CSCs) are solely responsible for security in the cloud environment. The Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) are accountable.

Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) and Cloud Service Customers (CSCs) share security responsibilities. The exact allocation of responsibilities depends on the technology and context.

Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) are solely responsible for security in the cloud environment. Cloud Service Customers (CSCs) have an advisory role.

MFA relies on physical tokens and biometrics to secure accounts.

MFA requires multiple forms of validation that would have to compromise.

MFA requires and uses more complex passwords to secure accounts.

MFA eliminates the need for passwords through single sign-on.

A general lack of interoperability standards means that extra focus must be placed on the security aspects of migration between Cloud providers.

The size of data sets hosted at a Cloud provider can present challenges if migration to another provider becomes necessary.

Customers of SaaS providers in particular need to mitigate the risks of application lock-in.

Clients need to do business continuity planning due diligence in case they suddenly need to switch providers.

Geographic redundancy ensures that Cloud Providers provide highly available services.
