Working Group: Security as a Service

The use of cloud services have continued to increase over the past decade. Particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 public health crisis, many enterprises digital transformations are on an accelerated track to enable employees to work from home.

Goals of the study:

 • Determine the use and challenges of public cloud workloads today and 1 year from now
 • Understand cloud IAM challenges specifically human and machine identity challenges
 • Establish the anticipated methods of addressing cloud IAM challenges
 • Identify the teams and roles responsible for cloud IAM
