It takes time to build a mature security program, particularly at rapidly-growing companies that are innovating. In addition, cloud computing enables innovation and scale but does not necessarily simplify a company’s security needs and strategy. In this keynote, we look at some of the security and privacy challenges that young companies face today. We share some anecdotes and lessons learned from our own experiences as we grew rapidly in a cloud-first environment.
