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.This episode explores:The Defender’s Paradox and why attackers have the advantageKey cloud security trends shaping 2025–2029How 32% of neglected assets have 115+ vulnerabilities eachAI in the cloud: innovation vs. insecure adoptionIdentity as the new perimeter—and why machine identities outnumber humans 50:1Real-world IAM misconfigurations attackers exploitPost-quantum cryptography: why you must start preparing nowThe rise of Single Sign-Off (SSO-off) and phishing-resistant MFAZero Trust in practice: what’s working, what’s still theoryCritical steps to secure your cloud workloads, data, and identities👉 Sponsored by StoneFly – Explore enterprise-grade security appliances, immutable backup storage, and hyperconverged solutions for VMware, Hyper-V, and Proxmox.
