The Top Threats reports have traditionally aimed to raise awareness of threats, risks, and vulnerabilities in the cloud. Such issues are often the result of the shared, on-demand nature of cloud computing. In this fifth installment, we surveyed 703 industry experts on security issues in the cloud industry. This year our respondents identified eleven salient threats, risks, and vulnerabilities in their cloud environments. The Top Threats Working Group used the survey results and its expertise to create the 2022 Top Cloud Threats report - the ‘Pandemic Eleven’.

Some of the areas covered in this survey include where Zero Trust falls as a priority in the organization, the percentage of those who have completed related implementations, top business challenges, and top technical challenges. Through the survey and upcoming report, CSA is looking to learn where C-level executives are in terms of their Zero-Trust strategies, pain points, vendor needs, management requirements/oversight, technical considerations, legacy challenges, adoption rates, and stakeholder involvement. CSA is dedicated to educating the C-suite, board members, staff, and stakeholders on the benefits of Zero Trust.
