Can you really trust cloud-native firewalls to protect your data, or is it time to rethink your cybersecurity strategy? Brace yourself for some stark revelations as we dissect a shocking report by CyberRatings.org on the dismal performance of major cloud providers' firewalls. With AWS's effectiveness plummeting to a mere 0.38%, and Azure and GCP faring only slightly better, it's time to scrutinize where these cloud giants are missing the mark. Our discussion uncovers a startling gap between what's promised and what's delivered, with a strong recommendation to consider third-party solutions for real protection.

Shift gears with us as we explore the intense dynamics of the AI and cloud markets. From Google's bold challenge to Microsoft's OpenAI partnership to Oracle's stock shake-up and new collaboration with Meta, the tech landscape is anything but static. We shed light on the realities of cloud infrastructure management, where less than a fifth of IT professionals are satisfied with their current systems. Whether it's the promise of AI innovation or the struggle of hybrid cloud complexities, our episode offers a thought-provoking examination of what's working in tech—and what isn't.
