Serverless Computing Security: Cost-Efficiency Meets Protection
Serverless Computing Security: Cost-Efficiency Meets Protection
Serverless computing allows developers to deploy apps without managing infrastructure—but this convenience brings new security challenges. As adoption rises in 2025, it’s crucial to secure serverless environments from threats.
What Is Serverless?
Instead of renting servers, you pay only for the exact time your code runs—via platforms like AWS Lambda or Azure Functions.
Security Concerns in Serverless Environments
- Function Injection Attacks
- Data Leakage
- Lack of Visibility
How to Secure Serverless Architectures
- Implement Function Scanning and real-time monitoring.
- Use least privilege access controls for each function.
- Encrypt data in transit and at rest.
