The State of Cloud Native Security

With the growth of cloud computing platforms like Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud Platform, cloud computing is often the cornerstone of digital transformation efforts. The move to cloud native applications is accelerating and already the default for over 60% of surveyed companies when they design, build and deploy their applications. However, the ability to gain threat visibility and deploy effective security measures within production environments remain a visible gap.

KEY FINDINGS INCLUDE:

  • Organizations struggle to balance security with efficient deployment of production applications: 40 percent of respondents’ organizations do not currently have a DevOps function in place. The cause? Half said the lack of appropriate skills on their security teams was the primary obstacle to forming a DevOps practice.
  • Organizations have limited real-time visibility into attacks: 73 percent say they lack actionable, fine-grain, real-time insight into threats and ongoing attacks
  • False positives continue to plague IT and security organizations: 46 percent of those surveyed said that more than half of production environment security alerts were false positives.
