Consistent toolbox talks are critical for maintaining workplace safety, as they provide regular opportunities to address specific hazards and reinforce safe practices.
These brief, focused sessions ensure that safety is a continual conversation rather than a one-time event, which helps keep safety protocols fresh in employees' minds. Studies have shown that shorter, more frequent training sessions are more effective for retention and behavior change compared to longer, infrequent sessions.
Engaging workers regularly, toolbox talks promote a culture of safety, empower employees to voice concerns, and ultimately reduce the likelihood of accidents and injuries on site.
The traditional method of conducting safety talks with paper documents and lengthy meetings is not only time-consuming but also less effective. Manual tracking of attendance and compliance is prone to errors and inconsistencies, leading to gaps in safety communication and potential non-compliance with OSHA regulations. Switching to a digital solution like Safelyio offers significant advantages.
Safelyio automates the delivery and documentation of safety talks, ensuring consistency and accessibility. The microlearning approach breaks down complex safety protocols into manageable, bite-sized pieces, making it easier for employees to absorb and retain information.
This method minimizes disruptions to work schedules, eliminates the hassle of paperwork, and ensures that all safety communications are tracked and recorded accurately. Ultimately, using a digital platform like Safelyio enhances engagement, compliance, and overall safety performance on site. https://safelyio.com/

12. Cloud Security As A Service
• SecaaS
• Is a segment of the SaaS offering of a CP
• Defined by The Cloud Security Alliance as
– the provision of security applications and services
via the cloud
• either to cloud-based infrastructure and software or
from the cloud to the customers’ on-premise systems

16. Who is the attacker?
Insider?
• Malicious employees at client
• Malicious employees at Cloud
provider
• Cloud provider itself
Outsider?
•Intruders
•Network attackers?
17. Attacker Capability: Malicious Insiders
• At client
– Learn passwords/authentication information
– Gain control of the VMs
• At cloud provider
– Log client communication
18. Attacker Capability: Cloud Provider
• What?
– Can read unencrypted data
– Can possibly peek into VMs, or make copies of
VMs
– Can monitor network communication, application
patterns
19. Attacker motivation: Cloud Provider
• Why?
– Gain information about client data
– Gain information on client behavior
– Sell the information or use itself
• Why not?
– Cheaper to be honest?
• Why? (again)
– Third party clouds?
21. Novel attacks on clouds
• Question: Can you attack a cloud or other
users, without violating any law?
• Answer: Yes!! By launching side channel
attacks, while not violating Acceptable User
Policy.
– A Side Channel is a passive attack in which
attacker gains information about target through
indirect observations.
22. Why Cloud Computing brings new threats?
• Traditional system security mostly means
keeping bad guys out
• The attacker needs to either compromise the
auth/access control system, or impersonate
existing users
23. Why Cloud Computing brings new threats?
• But clouds allow co-tenancy :
• Multiple independent users
share the same physical infrastructure
• So, an attacker can legitimately be in the same
physical machine as the target
24. Challenges for the attacker
How to find out where the
target is located
How to be co-located with the
target in the same (physical)
machine
How to gather information
about the target
25. More on attacks…
1. Can one determine where in the cloud
infrastructure an instance is located?
2. Can one easily determine if two instances are
co-resident on the same physical machine?
3. Can an adversary launch instances that will
be co-resident with other user instances?
4. Can an adversary exploit cross-VM
information leakage once co-resident?
Answer: Yes to all
26. Cloud Cartography Strategy
• Map the cloud infrastructure to find where
the target is located
• Use various heuristics to determine co-
residency of two VMs
• Launch probe VMs trying to be co-resident
with target VMs
• Exploit cross-VM leakage to gather info about
target

27. Clouds extend the attack surface
• An attack surface is a vulnerability in a system
that malicious users may utilize
• How?
– By requiring users to communicate with the cloud
over a public / insecure network
– By sharing the infrastructure among multiple
users
28. Analyzing Attack Surfaces in Clouds

API depending on the service model type, IaaS, PaaS,
or SaaS) that the service instance can use (i.e. run on).
n the same way, a service instance provides its service

connection, Web Service, ...). Thus, with 3 participants,

resources or end up in a Denial-of-Service, or attacks
on the cloud system hypervisor (see Section 3.2).
The other way around, theattack surfaceof aservice

Figure from: Gruschka et al., Attack Surfaces: A Taxonomy for Attacks on
Cloud Services.
Cloud attack surfaces can
be modeled using a 3 entity
model (user, service, cloud)
29. Attack Surface: 1
• Service interface exposed towards clients
• Possible attacks: Common attacks in client-
server architectures
– E.g., Buffer overflow, SQL injection, privilege
escalation
30. Attack Surface: 2
• User exposed to the service
• Common attacks
– E.g., SSL certificate spoofing, phishing
31. Attack Surface: 3
• Cloud resources/interfaces exposed to service
• Attacks run by service on cloud infrastructure
– E.g., Resource exhaustion, DoS
32. Attack Surface: 4
• Service interface exposed to cloud
• Privacy attack
• Data integrity attack
• Data confidentiality attack
33. Attack Surface: 5
• Cloud interface exposed to users
• Attacks on cloud control
34. Attack Surface: 6
• User exposed to cloud
• How much the cloud can learn about a user?
35. Problems Associated with Cloud Computing
• Most security problems stem from:
– Loss of control
– Lack of trust (mechanisms)
– Multi-tenancy
• These problems exist mainly in 3rd party
management models
– Self-managed clouds still have security issues,
but not related to above
36. Loss of Control in the Cloud
• Consumer’s loss of control
– Data, applications, resources are located with
provider
– User identity management is handled by the cloud
– User access control rules, security policies and
enforcement are managed by the cloud provider
– Consumer relies on provider to ensure
• Data security and privacy
• Resource availability
• Monitoring and repairing of services/resources
37. Lack of Trust in the Cloud
• Trusting a third party requires taking risks
• Defining trust and risk
– Opposite sides of the same coin (J. Camp)
– People only trust when it pays (Economist’s view)
– Need for trust arises only in risky situations
• Defunct third party management schemes
– Hard to balance trust and risk
– e.g. Key Escrow (Clipper chip)
– Is the cloud headed toward the same path?
38. Multi-tenancy Issues in the Cloud
• Conflict between tenants’ opposing goals
– Tenants share a pool of resources and have opposing goals
• How does multi-tenancy deal with conflict of interest?
– Can tenants get along together and ‘play nicely’ ?
– If they can’t, can we isolate them?
• How to provide separation between tenants?
• Cloud Computing brings new threats
– Multiple independent users share the same physical
infrastructure
– Thus an attacker can legitimately be in the same physical
machine as the target
39. Cloud Security Issues
• Confidentiality
– Fear of loss of control over data
• Will the sensitive data stored on a cloud remain confidential?
• Will cloud compromises leak confidential client data
– Will the cloud provider itself be honest and won’t peek
into the data?
• Integrity
– How do I know that the cloud provider is doing the
computations correctly?
– How do I ensure that the cloud provider really stored my
data without tampering with it?
40. Cloud Security Issues (cont.)
• Availability
– Will critical systems go down at the client, if the
provider is attacked in a Denial of Service attack?
– What happens if cloud provider goes out of
business?
– Would cloud scale well-enough?
– Often-voiced concern
• Although cloud providers argue their downtime
compares well with cloud user’s own data centers
41. Cloud Security Issues (cont.)
• Privacy issues raised via massive data mining
– Cloud now stores data from a lot of clients, and
can run data mining algorithms to get large
amounts of information on clients
• Increased attack surface
– Entity outside the organization now stores and
computes data, and so
– Attackers can now target the communication link
between cloud provider and client
– Cloud provider employees can be phished
42. Cloud Security Issues (cont.)
• Auditability and forensics (out of control of data)
– Difficult to audit data held outside organization in a cloud
– Forensics also made difficult since now clients don’t
maintain data locally
• Legal dilemma and transitive trust issues
– Who is responsible for complying with regulations?
• e.g., SOX, HIPAA, GLBA ?
– If cloud provider subcontracts to third party clouds, will
the data still be secure?
43. Cloud Security Issues (cont.)
• Security is one of the most difficult task to
implement in cloud computing.
– Different forms of attacks in the application side and in the
hardware components
• Attacks with catastrophic effects only needs one
security flaw
Cloud Computing is a security
nightmare and it can't be handled
in traditional ways.

CISCO CEO
45. Minimize Lack of Trust: Policy Language
• Consumers have specific security needs but don’t
have a say-so in how they are handled
– Currently consumers cannot dictate their requirements to
the provider (SLAs are one-sided)
• Standard language to convey one’s policies and
expectations
– Agreed upon and upheld by both parties
– Standard language for representing SLAs
• Create policy language with the following
characteristics:
– Machine-understandable (or at least processable),
– Easy to combine/merge and compare
46. Minimize Lack of Trust: Certification
• Certification
– Some form of reputable, independent,
comparable assessment and description of
security features and assurance
• Sarbanes-Oxley, DIACAP, DISTCAP, etc
• Risk assessment
– Performed by certified third parties
– Provides consumers with additional assurance
47. Minimize Loss of Control: Monitoring
• Cloud consumer needs situational awareness for
critical applications
– When underlying components fail, what is the effect of the
failure to the mission logic
– What recovery measures can be taken
• by provider and consumer
• Requires an application-specific run-time monitoring
and management tool for the consumer
– The cloud consumer and cloud provider have different
views of the system
– Enable both the provider and tenants to monitor the
components in the cloud that are under their control
48. Minimize Loss of Control: Monitoring
• Provide mechanisms that enable the provider to act
on attacks he can handle.
– infrastructure remapping
• create new or move existing fault domains
– shutting down offending components or targets
• and assisting tenants with porting if necessary
– Repairs
• Provide mechanisms that enable the consumer to act
on attacks that he can handle
– application-level monitoring
– RAdAC (Risk-adaptable Access Control)
– VM porting with remote attestation of target physical host
– Provide ability to move the user’s application to another
cloud
49. Minimize Loss of Control: Utilize Different Clouds
• The concept of ‘Don’t put all your eggs in one
basket’
– Consumer may use services from different clouds through an intra-
cloud or multi-cloud architecture
– A multi-cloud or intra-cloud architecture in which consumers
• Spread the risk
• Increase redundancy (per-task or per-application)
• Increase chance of mission completion for critical applications
– Possible issues to consider:
• Policy incompatibility (combined, what is the overarching policy?)
• Data dependency between clouds
• Differing data semantics across clouds
• Knowing when to utilize the redundancy feature
– monitoring technology
• Is it worth it to spread your sensitive data across multiple clouds?
– Redundancy could increase risk of exposure
50. Minimize Loss of Control: Access Control
• Many possible layers of access control
– E.g. access to the cloud, access to servers, access to services, access to
databases (direct and queries via web services), access to VMs, and
access to objects within a VM
– Depending on the deployment model used, some of these will be
controlled by the provider and others by the consumer
• Regardless of deployment model, provider needs to manage
the user authentication and access control procedures (to the
cloud)
– Federated Identity Management: access control management burden
still lies with the provider
– Requires user to place a large amount of trust on the provider in terms
of security, management, and maintenance of access control policies.
• This can be burdensome when numerous users from different
organizations with different access control policies, are involved
51. Minimize Loss of Control: Access Control
• Consumer-managed access control
– Consumer retains decision-making process to
retain some control, requiring less trust of the
provider
– Requires the client and provider to have a pre-
existing trust relationship, as well as a pre-
negotiated standard way of describing resources,
users, and access decisions between the cloud
provider and consumer.
• It also needs to be able to guarantee that the provider
will uphold the consumer-side’s access decisions.
– Should be at least as secure as the traditional
access control model.

53. Minimize Multi-tenancy
• Can’t really force the provider to accept less tenants
– Can try to increase isolation between tenants
• Strong isolation techniques (VPC to some degree)
• QoS requirements need to be met
• Policy specification
– Can try to increase trust in the tenants
• Who’s the insider, where’s the security boundary? Who
can I trust?
• Use SLAs to enforce trusted behavior
54. Conclusion
• Cloud computing is sometimes viewed as a
reincarnation of the classic mainframe client-
server model
– However, resources are ubiquitous, scalable, highly virtualized
– Contains all the traditional threats, as well as new ones
• In developing solutions to cloud computing
security issues it may be helpful to identify the
problems and approaches in terms of
– Loss of control
– Lack of trust
– Multi-tenancy problems
