Session Overview

Identifying gaps in Cloud Security requires today’s CISO to continuously monitor their cloud platform architecture, configurations, and accounts. Any misconfigurations expose environments to potential data breaches or data leakage.

 

Failure to uncover these gaps can result in material loss:

  • 74% of organizations store some or all of their sensitive data in public cloud environments.
  • Cloud misconfigurations caused nearly $5 Trillion in breaches during a two-year period surveyed.
  • 95% of public cloud security failures were the result of misconfigurations or mistakes.
    • Source: Gartner

 

What You Will Learn

In this session, attendees will hear from Cybersecurity Executives as to how they are working through the challenges of proactively monitoring and managing complex multi-cloud configurations to effectively secure their environments.

 

The content will draw on the experiences of these executives and how they are applying lessons learned in 2021 and beyond.
