We recently hosted a live discussion covering emerging trends within the cloud security space, primarily reflecting on how organizations could adopt a posture of continuous security and compliance across their SaaS applications. Continue on below to view the highlights from this discussion.

In this segment, Nightfall's Chief Revenue Officer Tim Gunderson calls out the ways in which accelerated cloud adoption and cloud security misconfigurations are making cloud service providers a prime target for supply chain attacks, and how this can impact organizations' security posture. We've talked about this elsewhere as well.
