Challenges with Cloud Remediation
Cloud remediation is a complex process that involves addressing vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in a distributed and ever-changing cloud environment. The challenge lies in identifying and prioritizing the right issues to fix, as well as coordinating with different development teams. Traditional approaches to vulnerability management, such as scanning and patching, are not sufficient in the cloud due to the distributed and ephemeral nature of resources. Automated remediation attempts in the past have often resulted in infrastructure breakdowns. However, there is a need for new tools and processes that can consolidate data, bridge the gap between security and development teams, and provide actionable insights for effective remediation.
