Summary

Cloud workload security (CWS) plays a pivotal role in cloud governance and security.

CWS allows organizations to maintain a single pane of visibility for workloads running across: 1) multiple cloud service providers (CSPs) and 2) different infrastructure layers (basic CSP configuration, CSP identities control plane, guest and host OSes, containers, and serverless functions). This report outlines key best practices and market trends for CWS domains.
