Digital transformation is sweeping across the public and private sectors. This has pushed organizations to increasingly turn to hybrid and multicloud environments as a way to manage a sprawling digital infrastructure and growing mountains of data.

However, 73% say it’s challenging to manage multicloud environments. This creates an imperative for security companies to better protect and defend these nuanced environments.
