Episode 31 — Cloud & Infra for AI

This episode explores cloud and infrastructure security in the context of AI, focusing on GPU clusters, multitenancy, storage, and network isolation. For certification readiness, learners must understand that AI workloads often demand specialized compute and storage, which in turn require hardened configurations and rigorous access controls. Misconfigurations in cloud services remain one of the most common causes of breaches, and in AI environments, such errors can expose sensitive datasets or enable adversarial access to model artifacts. Exam relevance lies in demonstrating knowledge of the shared responsibility model, where cloud providers secure the physical and platform layers while customers configure workloads and protect data.
Applied scenarios include attackers exploiting misconfigured object storage to exfiltrate training datasets, multitenant isolation failures leaking models between customers, or unsecured GPU clusters hijacked for resource theft. Best practices include encrypting data in transit and at rest, implementing strict network segmentation, monitoring compute usage for anomalies, and integrating logs into security operations. Troubleshooting considerations highlight challenges in scaling observability across distributed environments and ensuring regulatory compliance for cross-border deployments. Learners preparing for exams must be able to articulate both the risks and the layered defenses that protect AI cloud infrastructures.
