When conducting a forensic analysis after an incident, it's essential to prioritize the data collection process based on the "order of volatility." This principle dictates that more volatile data (e.g., data in memory, network connections) should be captured before less volatile data (e.g., disk drives, logs). The idea is to preserve the most transient and potentially valuable evidence first, as it is more likely to be lost or altered quickly.

When hosting an on-premises software application in a cloud-based service, ensuring visualization and isolation of resources is crucial for maintaining security best practices. This involves using virtualization techniques to create isolated environments (e.g., virtual machines or containers) for different applications and services, reducing the risk of cross-tenant attacks or resource leakage.

Network segmentation is important but pertains more to securing network traffic rather than isolating computing resources.

Data encryption is also essential but doesn’t specifically address resource isolation in a cloud environment.

Strong authentication policies are critical for access control but do not address the need for isolating resources within the cloud environment​​.
