Navigating the DSPM Journey: Preparing for the Future

In today's landscape, the widespread adoption of multi-cloud and hybrid cloud infrastructures has ushered in a new era of security challenges. The expanding attack surface has introduced complexity, obscured visibility, and security vulnerabilities. Simultaneously, organizations are migrating vast volumes of data to the cloud, capitalizing on scalability and cost-efficiency. This shift has compounded the challenges, scattering sensitive and business-critical data across various cloud platforms, leading to the emergence of "shadow data" – unmanaged data residing outside IT or security oversight.

The primary aim of Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) is to empower security and IT teams in identifying and mitigating cloud data security risks. DSPM accomplishes this through sensitive data analysis, enhancing visibility, access control, data flow management, and identification of infrastructure errors or misconfigurations.

This fireside chat features Skyhigh Security’s Dr. Nate Brady, Senior Enterprise Architect; Tony Frum, Principal Engineer; and is moderated by Kelly Elliott, Director of Product Marketing.
