Cloud Security & Posture Management: Securing What You Can’t Physically See
Cloud adoption has unlocked unprecedented agility — but it has also introduced new risks that traditional security tools were never designed to handle. The most common cause of cloud breaches today isn’t malware — it’s misconfiguration.
Understanding Cloud Security Posture
Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) focuses on:
Continuous visibility across cloud assets
Detection of misconfigurations and risky permissions
Enforcement of security and compliance policies
Unlike on-prem environments, cloud infrastructure changes constantly. Without automated posture management, security teams fall behind within hours.
Key Cloud Security Challenges
Excessive permissions and exposed storage
Shadow cloud assets
Inconsistent security controls across providers
Compliance drift over time
How Strong Cloud Posture Management Helps
✔ Continuous risk assessment
✔ Automated remediation
✔ Centralized visibility across AWS, Azure, GCP
✔ Alignment with compliance frameworks
Final Thought
Cloud security isn’t about slowing innovation — it’s about making innovation safe by design.
