The 2025 cloud landscape is dynamic, complex, and riddled with hidden vulnerabilities—from neglected assets to identity explosions and AI attack surfaces. We break down the Defender’s Paradox and what it means for modern security teams operating across multi-cloud, AI-driven, identity-first infrastructures.\nThis episode explores:\nThe Defender’s Paradox and why attackers have the advantage\nKey cloud security trends shaping 2025–2029\nHow 32% of neglected assets have 115+ vulnerabilities each\nAI in the cloud: innovation vs. insecure adoption\nIdentity as the new perimeter—and why machine identities outnumber humans 50:1\nReal-world IAM misconfigurations attackers exploit\nPost-quantum cryptography: why you must start preparing now\nThe rise of Single Sign-Off (SSO-off) and phishing-resistant MFA\nZero Trust in practice: what’s working, what’s still theory\nCritical steps to secure your cloud workloads, data, and identities\n👉 Sponsored by StoneFly – Explore enterprise-grade security appliances, immutable backup storage, and hyperconverged solutions for VMware, Hyper-V, and Proxmox.
