AlgoSec

These are the top 5 things every security pro should focus on right now... We analyzed insights from 192 security leaders across 28 countries and surfaced 5 takeaways you can apply right now, no matter what tools or vendors you use: 🔹 Tame the complexity • Trend: Multi-cloud and multi-vendor setups are the new normal, but they bring major management challenges • Action: Centralize policy management and orchestration to reduce risk, silos, and manual effort 🔹 Automate wherever you can • Trend: Manual processes can’t keep pace with modern networks • Action: Start with automating rule changes and compliance checks, then scale up 🔹 Align security with your network architecture • Trend: With SD-WAN and SASE on the rise, networking and security are converging fast • Action: Choose security tools that integrate natively with your infrastructure 🔹 Build Zero Trust step by step • Trend: Zero Trust awareness is high, but full adoption is still rare due to legacy systems and complexity • Action: Begin with IAM, MFA, and segmentation and expand as you go 🔹 Use AI—but fix your visibility first • Trend: AI has huge potential, but it’s only as good as the data it sees • Action: Invest in cloud and network visibility, then use AI to detect and respond in real time Which of these is your team prioritizing this year?

“If you want to reduce risk, visibility alone isn’t enough.” AlgoSec’s own Gal Yosef sat down with Pure AI to talk about what security and network teams are still missing when it comes to managing risk across hybrid environments. His key point? You can’t just look at your network — you have to understand how it behaves. Because without context, even the most detailed map is just noise. Whether you're an AlgoSec customer or not, here’s our advice: 1. Start with your applications. Know what they rely on, who accesses them, and where they’re exposed. 2. Then map risk from the app outward. That’s the only way to design policies and controls that actually reduce exposure. Gal breaks it down better than we ever could, check out the full discussion here: https://okt.to/0mbIcV

Everyone’s talking about multi-cloud. But no one’s quite talking about the same thing. Because “multi-cloud” doesn’t mean the same thing to everyone. And that’s part of the problem. You might be: • Running different business units on different cloud providers • Mixing IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS in a patchwork • Merging clouds after an acquisition • Building resilience through cloud redundancy •Trying to optimize across workloads Each of these paths leads to multi-cloud AND each one creates a unique security challenge in the form of less visibility. Here’s where to start to resolve multi-cloud challenges: • Map your app flows end-to-end, across environments • Centralize visibility—even if infrastructure isn’t centralized • Align policy enforcement to business needs, not just platforms Multi-cloud isn’t going away, but the blind spots can. Which of these multi-cloud scenarios sounds most familiar to you? Or are you dealing with something totally different?

Converging teams was only phase 1, now it’s time for phase 2... Most security orgs have restructured ownership and collaboration, but tools, policies, and visibility? Still operating in silos. If teams are aligned but the systems they rely on aren’t, risk management stalls. Or worse, creates friction that slows down the business. So what’s next? We've shared our insight on what executing a true convergence strategy looks like, no matter your architecture. Final thought: Convergence isn’t a milestone; it’s an operational foundation.

Network security isn’t just about preventing breaches anymore—it’s about unlocking business value. From faster cloud migrations to reduced costs, orgs are expecting more from their security strategies. What outcome is at the top of your list?

📣Calling all security leaders, the 2025 AlgoSec Horizon Tour is right around the corner... and it's not your typical vendor roadshow.

Building a solid foundation to maximize automation requires addressing misconfigurations quickly, paving the way for better efficiency and scalability. Here's how you can do that 👇

Applications are now the beating heart of the business and securing them means securing how they connect across cloud and on-prem. But many orgs still struggle to align IT, cloud, and security around shared goals.

The cloud didn’t simplify your network. It fragmented it. Hybrid multi-cloud is the new reality for everyone, but for most enterprises, it’s accidental. Add AI into the mix, and security complexity spikes even higher. That's why we rounded up literally the best and the brightest in the field to talk shop. John Grady from ESG joined Gal Yosef and Kyle Wickert to discuss: 🔹 Why hybrid apps are driving a new kind of webbed architecture 🔹 The critical need for segmentation in agent-driven AI systems 🔹 How to tame policy sprawl with automation and visibility 🗝️ Key takeaway: You don’t need more tools. You need unified visibility across clouds, apps, and infrastructure. 📽️ Watch the full conversation now. A final question for you: How is your team approaching security across converged environments? 💬 We'd love to hear your take.
