2024 Gartner CNAPP Guide: Enhance Cloud Security

Cloud security is critical, as organizations aim to achieve zero-trust goals and protect their cloud-native applications. And central to good cloud security is a Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP).

Gartner predicts that by 2029, "60% of enterprises that do not deploy a unified CNAPP solution within their cloud architecture will lack extensive visibility into the cloud attack surface and consequently fail to achieve their desired zero-trust goals." Their recent report is a fantastic overview of just why CNAPPs matter and what the current product landscape looks like.
