Organizations are continuing to grow their cloud footprints and cloud network security teams are having to adjust their plans to implement a comprehensive security strategy. The issue is that many companies are starting on the back foot; namely, a number of businesses are reliant on technologies like firewalls or CNAPP, which are inadequate for securing cloud deployments.
As such, more and more companies are being driven to examine the architectures for a comprehensive cloud workload security model, which includes insider threat detection, prevention of lateral threat movement, unification of security across multiple clouds, and more. As is the case with any major IT decision, it’s best to make it with as much information as possible.
