Cloud computing has emerged as the cornerstone of modern digital transformation, offering scalable, cost-effective, and flexible solutions across industries. The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has further amplified cloud capabilities by enabling intelligent data processing, real-time analytics, and automation. However, this powerful convergence of AI and cloud computing brings forth a new spectrum of challenges in ensuring security, resilience, and compliance. This paper presents a comprehensive exploration of strategies to build secure and resilient cloud ecosystems integrated with AI technologies. We investigate the complexities introduced by AI including data poisoning, adversarial attacks, and model vulnerabilities and propose robust countermeasures supported by machine learning and deep learning techniques. Moreover, we evaluate resilience from an architectural standpoint, highlighting AI-driven approaches to fault tolerance, self-healing infrastructure, and disaster recovery. Through detailed case studies in sectors like healthcare, finance, and smart infrastructure, we demonstrate the practical impact of AI in mitigating risks and optimizing performance. introducing comparative tables and empirical performance metrics, this paper offers actionable insights into the evolving landscape of AI-enabled cloud security. In conclusion, we envision a future where AI augments cloud resilience through intelligent automation, blockchain transparency, and quantum-safe cryptographic protocols ultimately driving the creation of a secure, ethical, and future-proof cloud ecosystem
