Twenty years ago, no one in IT could have predicted the monumental role that cloud computing would play in our everyday lives. To play off the words of Back to the Future‘s Doc Brown: “On-premises? Where we’re going, we don’t need on-premises.”

However, the rapidly changing nature of the cloud makes it difficult for security teams to fully understand the scope of assets they are responsible for at any given point in time, which is an absolute necessity in order for companies to truly be secure.

It is essential for organizations to carefully manage their assets and understand the security controls in place to know exactly what they cover.

It is incumbent upon technology and security professionals to constantly challenge the expectations of security solution coverage and adherence to controls to keep data and systems protected.
