The Intersection of Innovation, Security, and Business Growth

Ever feel like securing the cloud is like playing on an expert mode you didn’t even choose? 😅

Here’s a thought – in our increasingly cloud-native world, old security guidelines are starting to feel like cellphones with antennas. Remember those? 🦖

Now, I'm participating in a session with Shashwat Sehgal from P Zero Security, where we dove into how modern securities teams are balancing this complexity to tighten cloud security while keeping it smooth for our beloved developers who just want to “keep calm and code on”.

What’s the big takeaway? The transformation from traditional IT governance to cloud security must account for:

1. Sheer Complexity: Gone are the days when it was just about keeping humans out. We now have non-human identities too, just adding to the mix!
2. Developer-First Approach: Old tools weren’t built with developers in mind. Modern security requires tools that integrate seamlessly into their workflows without being a nuisance.

As an entrepreneur, I'm always striving for a balance: Security doesn’t have to hinder productivity. It’s like modern dancing – maintain safety but give developers enough rhythm to move freely. 💃🕺

What's the biggest hurdle you’ve faced in securing your cloud environment? Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!
