While migration to and between all types of cloud services poses security challenges, migration to and between public cloud services presents the greatest security challenge, with potentially dire consequences.

According to the Flexera State of the Cloud Report 2022, public cloud adoption continues to accelerate, with half of all study respondents' workloads and data residing in a public cloud.

As a consequence of this growth, there are also growing concerns about data security during cloud migration.

The application programming interfaces used to connect cloud applications, data and infrastructure can be a major source of vulnerability for cloud data security.

Restricting access to data during cloud migration is a crucial step for businesses seeking to transfer their information securely.

By taking proactive steps to secure data during cloud migrations and carefully planning the migration process to adhere to regulatory requirements, businesses can ensure their most critical assets are not lost or compromised during the process.
