Security concerns can slow down cloud adoption and stop digital transformation initiatives in their tracks. Even if they don’t, the rapid shift to cloud computing may result in your clients moving to the cloud without understanding cloud security challenges. Clients may also struggle to address new cybersecurity risks due to their rapid adoption of new, platform-specific, security tools that don’t provide protection and visibility across multi-cloud environments.
Relying on a patchwork of cloud-native security tools is a shaky, short-term solution at best. Your clients need a unified security infrastructure that spans and protects their entire attack surface. This requires them to rethink their firewall strategy to prioritize flexibility, consistency, automation and integration.
