About this analyst report

Bridge the gap between cloud security and the SOC with actionable insights from the latest IDC paper.

Cloud security has evolved rapidly, but many organizations still rely on fragmented systems that slow threat response and create blind spots. In their new whitepaper, "Bridging the CNAPP–SecOps Divide," IDC explores the growing divide between cloud security and security operations — and why the future of enterprise security depends on closing it.

What you'll learn:

  • Why CNAPP alone can't detect or contain active cloud threats.
  • How shadow "cloud SOCs" emerged and why they're dangerous.
  • What a unified CNAPP + SOC model looks like in practice.
  • Key steps to eliminate siloed cloud and enterprise security teams.

IDC sets out to answer one central question — are CNAPPs enough to meet the needs of modern security operations? Read their exploratory paper to understand what's working, what's missing, and where cloud and enterprise security must evolve.
