Learning Intention

Today I will investigate real-world cloud security breaches and propose prevention strategies.

✅ Success Criteria

I can summarize a cloud data breach, identify root causes, and suggest actionable security improvements.

🌍 Why Are We Learning This?

Failures teach us how to build stronger defenses—the best security pros learn from real incidents.

🧠 Warm-Up – Tech Journal Prompt

💡 “Why do you think organizations still have breaches, even with modern technology and security tools?”

📚 Word of the Day

Breach

Definition: An incident where security measures fail and data is accessed without permission.

Sentence: “The company reported a breach due to misconfigured storage.”

Why it matters: Understanding breaches means you can help stop them in the future.

📣 Lecture & Guided Discussion

• Case study: Review a well-known cloud data breach (Capital One, Target, etc.).

• Class brainstorm: What failed—technology, configuration, human error?

  ✅ CFU: Name a step that could have prevented this breach.
