Cloud networking
Cloud providers give you virtual networks, firewalls (security groups) and load balancers. The same rules apply: least access, closed ports, and private subnets for databases.

- Security groups are cloud firewalls
- Keep databases in private subnets
- Never open SSH to the whole internet if you can avoid it
