Different cloud providers and private cloud platforms may offer similar capabilities but different ways of implementing security controls, along with disparate management tools.
Old Security Tools No Longer Effective in the Cloud Security tools not born in the cloud are ill-equipped to protect applications running in the cloud for many reasons.
Cloud Providers' Own Security Tools: A Limited Answer The major cloud providers all use what's called "The shared responsibility model," which, at a very simplistic level, distinguishes between security "Of the cloud" and security "In the cloud".
The tools offered by the cloud security providers usually provide partial coverage for customer needs and increase the dependency of the customers on the cloud provider, but are not equally effective in protecting the multi-cloud environment, especially private clouds.
The Born-in-the-Cloud Approach Companies now are not only born in the cloud but specifically set out to secure the new cloud native stack, from containers to VMs and serverless.
Cloud Native Application Protection Platform - a new category named by Gartner - protects enterprise applications against attacks, which are increasing as the adoption of cloud grows.
