The 2022 State of Cloud Security report from Snyk highlights the growing challenges of cloud security as organizations adopt cloud-native tools and processes, creating a larger attack surface for malicious actors. The report reveals widespread cloud security events, with 80% of organizations experiencing at least one severe incident in the past year. Many teams struggle to define clear security goals, with 42% of cloud engineers believing their team is responsible for cloud security, but only 19% of security professionals agreeing. The survey also emphasizes the importance of effective cross-team collaboration and training, as well as the use of infrastructure as code (IaC) to secure cloud environments before applications are deployed. To address these challenges, Snyk aims to empower teams with developer-first security tools, including its new focus on cloud security.
