Dear Pradeep,
I haven't a direct experience about but with pleasure I searched more info online.
Checkpoint posted about with a downloadable paper: https://www.checkpoint.com/cyber-hub/cloud-security/what-is-a-cloud-native-application-protection-platform-cnapp/

What to watch out for:
✅Configuration Inconsistencies: Different clouds have different settings and defaults. Misconfigurations are a common issue and can lead to security vulnerabilities.
✅Compliance Challenges: Keeping up with various compliance requirements across different clouds can be challenging.
✅Complexity in Management: Managing security across multiple clouds adds complexity. This can lead to oversight and potential security gaps.
✅Shadow IT: Unauthorized cloud services used by employees can introduce security risks.
✅Vendor Lock-in Risks: Dependence on a specific cloud provider's tools or services can create challenges if you need to migrate or integrate with other clouds.
✅API Security: Ensure the security of APIs used to connect services and applications across different clouds.

Cheers, Fab
