Cloud Security Evolved: From CNAPP to AI Threats

Cloud Security Evolved: From CNAPP to AI Threats

The world of cloud security is evolving at breakneck speed. Are traditional tools and strategies enough to combat the sophisticated threats of tomorrow? In this episode, we're joined by Elad Koren, Vice President of Product Management from Palo Alto Networks, to explore the dynamic journey of cloud security.

Elad shares his insights on how the landscape has shifted, moving beyond the era of CSPM and CNAPP as standalone solutions. We delve into why a cloud-aware Security Operations Center (SOC) is no longer a luxury but a necessity, and what "runtime security" truly means in today's complex, multi-cloud environments.

The conversation also tackles the double-edged sword of Artificial Intelligence, how it’s empowering both attackers with new capabilities and defenders with advanced tools. Elad discusses the critical considerations for organizations undergoing digital transformation, the importance of AI governance, and provides actionable advice for companies at all stages of their cloud adoption journey, from securing code from day one to building holistic visibility across their entire infrastructure.
