Cloudy security outfit Devo Technology has announced the results of a report assessing the current state and pace of change regarding enterprise cloud transformation initiatives and the ramifications on teams running a Security Operations Center (SOC).
The snappily titled report, “Beyond Cloud Adoption: How to Embrace the Cloud for Security and Business Benefits”, found that the global pandemic accelerated business transformation far past the cloud tipping point and uncovered severe and far-reaching implications for security teams. It also revealed that forward-thinking and high performing organisations took this opportunity to face the challenges head-on. Their businesses are far better for it—with more than half of high performing organisations seeing gains in capabilities and visibility.
The findings come from a survey conducted by the Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) comprising 500 IT and security personnel in the ‘SOC chain of command’ at enterprise-class (i.e., more than 1,000 employees) organisations in North America and Western Europe in January 2021.
