The growing ubiquity in cloud native technologies also means the growing criticality of cloud security. CNCF commissioned LF Research to run a survey in their community, asking developers and IT leaders to evaluate how their organizations are addressing cloud native security. Analysis of the survey found a general belief that applications are more secure than they were two years ago, but there are significant challenges and concerns, such as keeping up with emerging threats, the complexity of the software, vulnerability scanning. The findings show where progress needs to be made, and where the CNCF can play a role in this progress.
