Re: September 25 - Day 5: Cloud Security & Risk
@Brian.Dean--I think you definitely want a SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) system.  The tricky parts are (a) are you logging everything, (b) are you algorithmically detecting issues across your logs effectively, and (c) are you able to detect improper transmission of your information?

A vendor can help you with most of (a) (but you still have to think through and make sure you really are logging everything), and probably all of (b), and only part of (c).  And you can pay wildly different amounts of money to different vendors for (a)-(c).  That said, I don't have strong enough knowledge of every service that each provider you listed has, so I don't know the answer.
