Cloud computing has become an essential requirement for enterprises, providing flexibility and scalability. According to a 2023 Gartner report, over 85% of organizations will embrace a cloud-first principle by 2025. Leading companies like Netflix, Amazon, and Dropbox rely heavily on cloud infrastructure to manage massive volumes of data, support global user access, and scale services dynamically based on demand. This shift to cloud-based solutions enables businesses to reduce operational costs, enhance agility, and accelerate innovation. Since organizations are increasingly opting for cloud services, this introduces a significant number of cybersecurity challenges, including risks to data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Moreover, these threat actors have found sophisticated ways of exploiting vulnerabilities in cloud platforms and environments, leading to unauthorized access, data loss, and financial gains. This paper offers a comprehensive analysis of the current situation of cybersecurity in a cloud environment, focusing on the critical vulnerabilities that arise from shared infrastructure and multi-tenancy. We identify key security risks and propose enhanced securi
