Key findings

  • Cloud security architecture and cloud security architect roles are key to the success of cloud computing initiatives because the cloud requires a different set of security design principles, processes and technologies.
  • Cloud risk assessment must be automated to keep pace with business needs.
  • Tier 1 cloud providers are usually the more secure starting points for workloads of all types.
  • Many companies have adopted a multicloud strategy, which necessitates the use of third-party security tools for consistent policy and governance across a multicloud landscape.
  • End users are increasingly consuming hundreds of software as a service applications and multiple infrastructure as a service offerings, and are building new services using platform as a service technologies. Cloud security initiatives must therefore take account of the various cloud “form factors” used by many organizations.
