Strengthening Security in Hybrid and Multi-Cloud Environments

Hybrid and multi-cloud architectures offer flexibility and scalability, but they also introduce challenges in maintaining consistent security across diverse platforms. Traditional approaches often struggle to deliver unified visibility and control across both on-premises infrastructure and cloud environments.

In this session, Simon Cross, Enterprise Security Architect at Infoblox, will explore how organisations can evolve defence-in-depth by adding an extra layer of pre-emptive controls. By focusing on early asset identification and understanding attacker infrastructure, organisations can enforce safeguards that block threats before they reach critical systems. Foundational network services, such as DNS, provide value throughout the layers of defence-in-depth: enabling visibility, supporting consistent policy enforcement, and underpinning the new pre-emptive layer that disrupts adversaries earlier in the kill chain.

Key takeaways:

• Approaches to simplify asset discovery and policy enforcement across hybrid environments
• How foundational network services deliver value across layers of the defence-in-depth model
• Ways to apply pre-emptive controls and threat intelligence to stop attacks sooner
