Automated Cross-Cloud Security Orchestration: A Framework for Consistent Security Policy Enforcement in Multi-Cloud

In the evolving landscape of multi-cloud environments, maintaining consistent security policy enforcement is a paramount challenge. The heterogeneity of cloud service providers (CSPs), coupled with disparate security mechanisms, necessitates an automated approach to security orchestration. This paper proposes a novel framework for Automated Cross-Cloud Security Orchestration (ACCSO), focusing on consistent policy enforcement, real-time adaptability, and reduced human intervention. Metrics including response time, policy compliance rate, and operational overhead are evaluated across experimental setups to validate the framework’s efficacy.
