We’ve all got our heads in the cloud, or if not yet, we’re well on our way there. In other words, the process of digital transformation is happening at such a pace that almost all organizations will soon be working in the cloud and using cloud-native technology. Analyst Gartner has predicted that by 2025, over 95% of new digital workloads will be deployed on cloud-native platforms. This represents a 30% growth from 2021.
First of a two-part series The online world is now packed with applications, so it’s unsurprising that they’re a top target for threat actors. However, traditional application security (AppSec) strategies often prove ineffective. To defend themselves against the rapidly evolving threat landscape, organizations need to build a modern AppSec strategy that addresses these fast-changing conditions.
