Abstract

Cloud computing has transformed modern cybersecurity by providing scalable and efficient security solutions. This study presents a comparative analysis of the security features of Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Key areas such as Identity and Access Management (IAM), encryption, network security, and compliance were evaluated using survey data collected from IT professionals. The findings show that AWS excels in scalability and flexibility, Azure performs strongly in compliance and enterprise integration, while Google Cloud stands out for ease of use and simplified security tools. The study provides valuable insights to help organizations select suitable cloud platforms based on their security needs.
