Synopsis
As organizations embrace cloud adoption at an unprecedented pace, security challenges in complex, multi-cloud environments have grown exponentially. In 2025, the Chief Information Security Officer's (CISO) role is undergoing a transformation—evolving from reactive defence strategies to proactive leadership in cloud security. Despite the inherent resilience of cloud services, the shared responsibility model remains a critical factor. Alarmingly, most cloud security incidents arise not from provider vulnerabilities but from customer misconfigurations and errors.
This session will demystify the four foundational pillars of cloud security that are essential for navigating today’s hybrid, multi-cloud landscape. Attendees will gain insights into cutting-edge approaches and technologies that are reshaping the field, ensuring compliance, and mitigating the risks posed by emerging threats. Using real-world case studies, this presentation will explore practical challenges and provide actionable guidance to elevate your cloud security posture and future-proof your organization.
