“Back in the day it was around protecting everything, encrypting everything, and really making sure that we scan everything in an environment. Now when we talk to clients, it's around how do we make sure that we are truly looking after the most important things in our environment, making sure that those are properly protected, [and] controlled.” - Stephen Coraggio
“You don't want to spend four months deciding what top five policies you want to enforce in a CSPM solution—Make those decisions quickly and reduce risk.” - Greg Tkaczyk
