For many companies, a lack of internal cybersecurity talent threatens to turn well-intentioned technological innovation into a liability. A leading U.S.-based bank sought to avoid falling into the all-too-common cybersecurity capabilities gap. The bank recognized the potential for several critical security risks in a multi-cloud infrastructure, including misconfigurations, manual security management practices, and regulatory compliance issues. Existing security guardrails and compliance controls were leaving sensitive data vulnerable and posing the risk of unauthorized access. The bank’s AWS and Microsoft Azure cloud platforms were delivering measurable business benefits. However, to keep up with ever-changing policy developments and avoid non-compliance penalties, the bank’s IT organization needed to optimize security configurations, patch complex legacy code, strengthen governance, and introduce security automation.
