Abstract
A system and method for enhancing data storage security in cloud environments using multiple gateway endpoints. The system includes a cloud data platform with a plurality of networks, each associated with a different gateway endpoint. Each gateway endpoint has a respective gateway endpoint tag. The method involves creating networks and corresponding gateway endpoints, configuring each gateway endpoint to enable traffic for sessions associated with the gateway endpoint tag, and assigning execution nodes to networks with session tokens that include the gateway endpoint tag. This setup ensures that only sessions with the correct tag can access data storage, reducing the risk of unauthorized data exfiltration.
