Event Details

Multi-cloud security involves protecting data, applications, and infrastructure across multiple cloud providers (e.g.,
AWS, Azure, GCP), addressing challenges like fragmented visibility, inconsistent policies, and complex identity
management. Securing these environments requires unified tools, automation, zero-trust architecture, and consistent
configuration management.

Be aware of multi-cloud: Each cloud provider follows its own security protocols. This fact creates a challenging
landscape that requires a well-coordinated security strategy. Multi-cloud security aims to ensure that data, apps, and
services are fully protected regardless of which cloud provider hosts them.

Single-cloud security as a contrast. It involves safeguarding resources within a single cloud provider’s environment.
Therefore, security management is simpler because it focuses on a single set of tools and protocols. Nonetheless, this
strategy can result in vendor entrapment and may lack adaptability.
