Techniques are provided for secure data management in a network computing environment. A security management system receives data from a device which operates in a device network that is managed by the security management system. The security management system performs a data classification process to determine a data sensitivity level of the received data. The security management system determines a type of encryption to apply to the received data based on the determined data sensitivity level. The type of encryption is determined from a plurality of different types of encryption that are supported by a cloud system. The security management system sends the received data to the cloud system to at least one of store the data and perform secured data analytic processing of the data, in a format according to the determined type of encryption.
