DevOps teams are increasingly relying on automation, agile practices and other ways to deploy software updates and releases at faster cadences. At the same time, organizations typically deploy cloud native applications in multicloud environments, adding further complexity for developer and operations teams — while also posing new security-management challenges.

In this The New Stack Makers podcast, Varun Badhwar, senior vice president, product, Palo Alto Networks, puts today’s multicloud security challenges into perspective. He also describes how Prisma Cloud 2.0 offers a single and comprehensive security alternative for cloud native applications across different cloud platforms.

While noting an 84% increase in container adoption last year and how 94% of organizations rely on more than one cloud environment, Badhar said that adopting viable multicloud and multiplatform strategies are key challenges associated with securing cloud native applications. Badhar joined Palo Alto Networks following its acquisition of cloud security defense company RedLock over two years ago where he was founder and CEO.
