Security News > 2021 > October > For adapting to new cloud security threats, look to “old” technology
While there is a time and place for onboarding additional cloud security solutions, it can also be easy to fall prey to the shiny object syndrome surrounding emerging solutions that are created in response to new security threats.
Before rushing to invest in a new solution remember that matching additional solutions to emerging threats in a one-to-one game of whack-a-mole is not a sustainable strategy.
Why onboarding new cloud security tools isn't always helpful.
More security point solutions in your architecture equals more complexity.
DNS is an example of a multi-faceted technology that most enterprises overlook when seeking to secure their cloud and on-premises environments.
New tools are not always a bad idea, but organizations with finite budgets must focus on getting more of their existing technology stack before turning to new shiny objects.
