A recent industry report has revealed a troubling trend: nearly two-thirds of organisations have experienced cloud security incidents in the past year, but ๐ผ๐ป๐น๐ ๐ต% ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐บ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฟ๐๐ ๐ต๐ผ๐๐ฟ.
On average, it takes over 24 hours to respond, giving attackers time to move laterally, escalate privileges, and cause real damage.
This isn’t just a security issue, ๐ถ๐’๐ ๐ฎ ๐ฏ๐๐๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ธ.
Long detection windows undermine customer trust, damage corporate reputations, endanger regulatory compliance, and impact operational resilience.
So what is causing this delay in detecting incidents? This delay is likely caused by a combination of factors, including ๐ฎ๐น๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ ๐ณ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ด๐๐ฒ, disconnected toolsets, and limited visibility across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
As cloud adoption accelerates, so must our detection and response strategies. That means automated threat detection, better signal-to-noise ratios, and cloud-native security architectures that scale with speed and complexity.
We canโt defend what we canโt see, and we canโt wait 24 hours to act.
