Overcoming the Challenges of Hybrid Cloud
Security
Why network visibility and packet capture are just as important in the cloud as on-premises.
By Mark Evans, VP Marketing and Packet Evangelist, Endace
As the adoption of public cloud continues to grow, so too does the volume of cybersecurity attacks on
public cloud infrastructure. In a 2023 survey from Thales, 39% of respondents reported suffering a cloud
security breach in the previous 12 months.
According to IBM’s recently released 2023 Cost of a Data Breach Report, 82% of reported breaches
involved data stored in the cloud, and almost 40% of data breaches resulted in the loss of data across
multiple environments including public cloud, private cloud and on-premise.

organizations as they move workloads into public cloud environments.
