Cloud Security Detection & Response Strategies That Actually Work
We spoke to Will Bengtson (VP of Security Operations at HashiCorp) bout the realities of cloud incident response and detection. From root credentials to event-based threats, this conversation dives deep into:
- Why cloud security is NOT like on-prem – and how that affects incident response
- How attackers exploit APIs in seconds (yes, seconds—not hours!)
- The secret to building a cloud detection program that actually works
- The biggest detection blind spots in AWS, Azure, and multi-cloud environments
- What most SOC teams get WRONG about cloud security
