Facing demands to increase productivity and scale, organizations are moving to cloud-native application development and delivery leveraging Kubernetes to automate deployment. However, security teams are struggling to keep up, resulting in security incidents that cause application downtime, unauthorized access, data loss, and compliance fines. Consequently, organizations are more broadly adopting DevSecOps practices that incorporate security into development and DevOps processes to reduce the security misconfigurations deployed to the cloud and more quickly mitigate security issues when they are found in running applications. Additionally, organizations are looking to leverage suites and platforms procured from a smaller set of vendors or even a single vendor to reduce complexity and realize a unified cybersecurity posture across distributed cloud environments.
To gain further insight into these trends, TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group surveyed 374 IT, cybersecurity, and application development professionals at organizations in North America (US and Canada) responsible for evaluating or purchasing cloud security technology products and services.
