Microsoft and Altron Digital Business outline the current enterprise cloud security landscape, emphasizing that attackers now primarily use stolen credentials to log in rather than breach perimeters. Key themes include the doubling of tracked threat actor organizations to 3,000, the end of perimeter-based security, widespread misconfiguration risks in multi-cloud environments, underutilized Microsoft Defender capabilities already included in E3/E5 licenses, identity lifecycle debt, and the emerging governance challenge of unsanctioned AI agents accessing corporate data. The session recommends starting with a structured envisioning workshop before deploying solutions.
