Dynamic Security in AWS: Creating Seamless Protection for Cloud and On-premises Networks

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the undisputed leader of the $32 billion Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud services market. One consequence of this immense popularity is that cyber criminals are aiming their full arsenal of sophisticated malware at the infrastructure, applications, and data that reside on AWS. Therefore, security architects tasked with designing, implementing, and maintaining security for AWS environments should look for comprehensive solutions that deliver multilayer protections which augment native AWS tools.
Seamless cloud-native integration and workflow automation are key to enabling lean security teams to manage growing AWS footprints. Moreover, because applications and workloads (and threats) tend to move between AWS and on-premises environments, security solutions must envelop the entire hybrid network to provide consistent, centrally managed protection that reduces both operational overhead and security risk.
