To select a suitable cloud security solution for your business, you need to think about a variety of factors.

Let's face it, managing security on-premises is hard enough, but add in multiple cloud vendors and platform options, increased threat vectors and attack surfaces - the need for cloud security cannot be overstated.

When selecting a cloud security solution consider the following questions: Does this solution let the business build quickly in the cloud but also let me sleep well at night? Can I prove to myself, my board, and auditors that we have configured things correctly? If we have to start an investigation, can I trace the path of a given action, starting from login?

Cloud security affects the entire organization, so selecting a cloud security solution requires buy-in from all stakeholders.

With the elastic nature of cloud environments, assets can be accessed, utilized and altered, oftentimes by stakeholders outside of the security team, which can restrict security professionals' visibility into their organizations' cloud assets.

Assess fit: A cloud security solution must support direct offloading of internet traffic from all clients and devices in primary environments It must secure the new way of work - remote, device-agnostic, and outside the network perimeter.
