1,000+ global Security and IT leaders reveal how AI is reshaping hybrid cloud security.

AI Is Forcing Security Leaders to Rethink Hybrid Cloud Strategies.

Breach rates are up 17 percent year over year, with 55 percent of organizations hit in the past 12 months. Nearly half say their tools failed to detect the breach.

AI is rapidly escalating cybersecurity complexity. A third of organizations report that network traffic has more than doubled in two years. At the same time, 91 percent of Security and IT leaders admit they are making tradeoffs, sacrificing visibility, relying on siloed tools, and working with poor-quality data.

The public cloud, once seen as a path to agility, is now considered the riskiest part of the hybrid cloud infrastructure by 70 percent of respondents. Nearly half still lack visibility into lateral East-West traffic, leaving them vulnerable to advanced threats like AI-powered ransomware.

But change is coming. Security leaders are reprioritizing. Eighty-eight percent agree that deep observability is critical to regaining control, restoring trust in their data, and making AI work for them instead of against them.
