Security News > 2022 > March > As breaches soar, companies must turn to cloud-native security solutions for protection
Over the past two years, companies' adoption of public cloud services has surged, but fast-paced change and weaker security controls have led to an increase in data breaches, finds a Laminar report.
As companies go digital-first, data security professionals are managing an increasingly complex multi-cloud environment, while struggling with a lack of visibility, inadequate controls, and rising shadow data problem.
The good news is that the high number of public cloud data breaches has increased executive buy-in for cybersecurity at 50% of companies surveyed.
Given worsening cyber risks, security gaps, and breaches, data protection professionals believe it's time to try another approach.
Cloud-native security solutions should focus on the data.
A cloud-native security solution should be able to autonomously discover and classify sensitive data across all cloud accounts.
