BLUF: This webinar outlines strategies for cloud defenders to build resilient defenses by gaining comprehensive visibility across multiple cloud service providers (CSPs) to detect and respond to attacks, anomalies, and operational issues 0:15.
Key Takeaways:
• The primary goal is to establish a "resilient defense" that allows security teams to effectively monitor and protect cloud environments 0:13.
• Gaining visibility involves monitoring the actual attacks, anomalies, and malicious activities occurring within the cloud infrastructure 0:30.
• Defense strategies must account for both the application and control planes to understand the full scope of business functions and operations 0:44.
• Effective cloud security requires understanding the "why" behind visibility, specifically how it aids in identifying threats across various CSPs 0:48.
Closing Statement: By prioritizing deep visibility into both application and control layers, organizations can better identify threats and maintain operational integrity across diverse cloud platforms.

Welcome once again. My name is Sir Borso and this is beyond the basics. What cloud defenders needs to know. Also another working title here which is to you know build a resilient defense. What we're going to talk about in this webinar are going to be a few different things. I'll talk about gaining visibility across various CSPs that's cloud service providers and the reason why that matters. When I say gaining visibility, I'll go way more in depth when we get to that topic, but I'm talking about being able to see the actual attacks that are occurring or the anomalies or the maliciousness or just basic business functions and and operations from an application and control plane perspective inside of your cloud environment and why that matters like the whole why behind this and then a little b…
