Insight No. 1: Forget the hype. Cloud security is a battlefield, and you're woefully unprepared.

Let's cut the crap. Everyone's talking about cloud security, but most organizations are still playing catch-up. You think those cloud providers have your back? Think again. They're too busy raking in profits to worry about your data. So what's a CISO to do? First, ditch the complacency. Those legacy security tools you're clinging to? They're useless in the cloud. Next, get your team up to speed. Cloud platform protection, data security, architecture design — these aren't just buzzwords; they're essential skills in the fight for cloud dominance. And don't forget the basics. Security engineering, risk assessment, Application Security —these are the foundations of a solid security posture, whether you're in the cloud or on-prem.
