However, this increase in cloud<br \/>\nadoption may leave business data insecure.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Trend Micro<br \/>\ncommissioned Sapio Research to interview 2565 decision makers in 28 countries,<br \/>\nacross several industry sectors, and from organizations of all sizes, with a<br \/>\nfocus on large enterprise.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a very<br \/>\npositive sign that a majority of organizations around the world are embracing<br \/>\ndigital transformation and adopting the cloud,&#8221; said\u00a0<span class=\"xn person\">Mark Nunnikhoven<\/span>, vice president of cloud research for<br \/>\nTrend Micro. &#8220;But the survey findings also highlight the challenges<br \/>\nremaining with understanding security in the cloud. Cloud adoption is not a<br \/>\n&#8216;set it and forget it&#8217; process, but takes ongoing management and strategic<br \/>\nconfiguration to make the best security decisions for your business.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The survey confirms a<br \/>\nsimple misconception that can lead to serious security consequences. While<br \/>\ncloud infrastructure is secure, customers are responsible for securing their<br \/>\nown data &#8212; which is the basis of the Shared Responsibility Model for cloud.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nearly all (92%) of<br \/>\nrespondents say they are confident they understand their cloud security<br \/>\nresponsibility, but 97% also believe their cloud service provider (CSP) offers<br \/>\nsufficient data protection.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Of those surveyed, only<br \/>\n55% of respondents use third-party tools to secure their cloud environments.<br \/>\nThis suggests that there may be significant coverage gaps and confirms that the<br \/>\nshared responsibility is not understood.
