3 cloud security challenges you can’t ignore
Automation, skills gaps, and public cloud concerns
Automation, skills gaps, and public cloud concerns
A significant challenge is the shortage of skilled professionals, with 76% of organisations reporting a lack of cloud security expertise. This skills gap makes it difficult to design, implement, and manage secure cloud environments, leaving businesses more vulnerable to breaches and misconfigurations.
Adding to the concern, 92% of security professionals express apprehension about public cloud security. Public cloud platforms offer scalability and flexibility, but they also introduce complex security risks such as unauthorised access, data breaches, and insufficient visibility into cloud infrastructure. The shared responsibility model - where cloud providers and customers both play roles in security - can also lead to confusion and oversight.
To address these concerns, 67% of businesses are adopting Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) solutions. CSPM tools continuously monitor cloud environments for compliance violations and security risks, helping organisations identify and remediate misconfigurations before they can be exploited.
These tools also provide automated policy enforcement and visibility across multi-cloud deployments, which is crucial in today’s hybrid IT landscapes. However, the effectiveness of CSPM still depends on the availability of knowledgeable professionals to interpret findings and implement corrective actions, further emphasising the need for skilled cloud security experts. But as cloud adoption accelerates, so do the challenges of securing multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
