A cloud provider may hold customer, billing, resource, access, configuration and security records. The value depends on the service model.

What to do

Possible records include account users, permissions, resource creation and deletion, assigned IPs, virtual-machine or storage identifiers, administrative access, security alerts, support communications and regions. Application logs may remain inside customer-controlled resources.

Key takeaway

Identify the exact cloud product and customer account controlling the resource at the relevant time.
