About this tag
Cloud security on WindowsForum.com covers Microsoft 365 tenant configuration risks, Azure cross-tenant vulnerabilities like CVE-2025-29827, and server-side flaws in Bing Images and Microsoft Devices Pricing Program. Discussions examine how attackers abuse legitimate OAuth tokens and trusted tools to steal data from cloud services, and how federal agencies manage concentration-of-risk from deep Microsoft integration. Topics also include managed AI sandbox environments from AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Cloudflare, and the need for repeatable enterprise AI operating models. Recurring themes are identity abuse, tenant isolation, privilege escalation, and the security implications of cloud-native AI and automation.
