Work Smarter Not Harder: Tips to Approach Cloud Security the Easier Way
summary
Cloud misconfigurations cause most incidents: research cites 65–70% of cloud issues start with misconfiguration and Trend Micro claims 840 million misconfigurations a day; public leaks total over 2 billion records and the Capital One breach traces to two misconfigurations plus a bug. The cloud platforms add ~5,000 features in 2020, so continuous posture management, container image scanning, admission controls, CI/CD security, network and application controls, and open‑source vulnerability tools (Snyk cited) are the concrete fixes that reduce risk and enable faster builds.
