Network Security Trends in Hybrid Cloud Environments

In a hybrid cloud environment, you have to deal with two different worlds: the public cloud and your own data centers. How do you keep them both secure and in sync? ESG posed that question to 255 North American cybersecurity and IT experts who work with network security tools and processes every single day. The results of this survey have yielded some surprising insights and challenges for organizations of all sizes.

ESG’s research report shows that most organizations are drawn to cloud service provider (CSP) tools for public cloud security because they’re easy to use and accessible – but public cloud security is becoming a significantly greater challenge as threats increase and the use of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) expands. Most businesses rely on the security services that are included with their CSP, but is that enough?

Many organizations that switch to hybrid cloud environments find themselves facing issues with security due to the cybersecurity skills gap, staffing issues and a lack of incident response capabilities – they’re seeking out robust and reliable network security tools that meet all of their needs and more.

Are you looking to take your hybrid cloud network security to the next level? Don’t miss ESG’s recommendations on the current state and future trends of this dynamic and growing security subsect.
