Hybrid and multicloud adoption are par for the course for enterprise businesses, with 86% of organizations planning to increase their investment in the technology. And while cloud technology does bring inherent advantages—namely flexibility, cost-effectiveness, improved disaster recovery, increased security, better compliance, and better performance—it can also lead to increased cybersecurity risks if not managed properly.
Nearly three-quarters (73%) of businesses find it challenging to adequately manage multicloud environments. This is why a strong governance and management strategy is needed to ensure seamless data and workload movement across all cloud environments. It also contributes to more consistent security and compliance controls.
