Shifting left in enterprise cloud security
In today's constantly-evolving landscape of cyberthreats, with increased popularity of multi-cloud, hackers have never had more ways into company networks
What does 'Shifting Left' mean in cloud security?
Shifting Left refers to the practice of integrating security measures early in the development process rather than waiting until after development is complete. This approach helps identify and address vulnerabilities or misconfigurations before applications go live, reducing the risk of cyberattacks.
What are the common challenges organizations face in cloud security?
Organizations often struggle with the complexity of configuring and securing cloud services, especially as many teams may not implement consistent security practices. Additionally, the rapid deployment of cloud solutions often outpaces the adoption of necessary cybersecurity measures, leaving gaps that hackers can exploit.
How can organizations improve their cloud security posture?
To improve cloud security, organizations should adopt a consolidated security platform that provides a comprehensive view of risks across their cloud assets. It's also essential to ensure consistency in security practices across teams, provide appropriate training for employees, and implement automated rules to safeguard against potential breaches.
