ANALYST REPORT: NETWORK VISIBILITY ARCHITECTURE WILL MAKE OR BREAK CLOUD
TRANSFORMATION


Network Visibility Architecture Will Make or Break Cloud TransformationAugust
2022 EMA White PaperBy Shamus McGillicuddy, Vice President of ResearchPrepared
for
. 1EMA White Paper | Network Visibility Architecture Will Make or Break Cloud
TransformationExecutive SummaryThis white paper, based on new research by EMA,
provides insight and guidance to IT and cybersecurity leaders who are adapting
their network visibility solutions to a hybrid, multi-cloud future. It
identi-fies best practices for ensuring the delivery of network traffic data to
performance and security analysis tools. EMA created this paper for Gigamon, a
leading vendor in the network visibility industry. Cloud Transformation is
Disrupting Network VisibilityThe multi-cloud era is here. Today, 83% of
enterprises are multi-cloud, with 27% claiming to use three or more cloud
providers.1 This migration of applications to multi-cloud environments
intro-duces tremendous complexity that challenges network visibility and
undermines IT operations and cybersecurity. EMA research found that the
migration of applications to the cloud has introduced blind spots in 45% of
enterprises today. Those blind spots become more common as companies establish
multi-cloud networks. Only 15% of companies that use one cloud provider have
cloud blind spots, but 68% of companies that use three or more cloud providers
have these blind spots. This is a three-dimen-sional problem. The blind spots
occur between cloud providers, but also between the cloud and on-premises
networks. Perhaps most critically, these blind spots occur within individual
cloud envi-ronments, where east-west traffic between containers and virtual
mahcines is hard to monitor with the observability solutions upon which DevOps
teams rely. These disruptions to visibility are a problem for people who are
accountable for network perfor-mance and security. While they might not have
introduced these blind spots, IT operations and security personnel are
responsible for mitigating the issue. As one network engineer with a Fortune 100
consumer goods manufacturer recently told EMA, mitigation isn’t simple. “People
always blame the network. If the problem has something to do with the cloud
application itself, we’re not good at getting that data. Tools need better
visibility into the cloud.” 1Unless otherwise noted, all data cited in this
paper was originally published by EMA in the June 2022 research report, “Network
Visibility Architecture for the Hybrid, Multi-Cloud Enterprise.”The migration of
applications to the cloud has introduced blind spots in 45% of enterprises
today.
. 2EMA White Paper | Network Visibility Architecture Will Make or Break Cloud
TransformationThis lost visibility in the cloud presents a major and potentially
catastrophic risk to companies. Nearly half of companies that have these blind
spots have experienced a security or compliance policy violation. Moreover, 46%
experienced extended application outages or performance problems, 45%
experienced a security breach, and 44% reported cost overruns with their cloud
providers. EMA believes that a network visibility architecture that spans
on-premises and cloud infrastructure is essential for addressing the operational
challenges introduced by the visibility that is lost in the cloud. A network
visibility architecture is an overlay of hardware and software that mirrors,
aggregates, opti-mizes, and forwards network traffic data to performance and
security analysis tools. EMA research found that enterprises that are the most
successful with their network visibility architectures are less likely to
experience cloud-driven network blind spots.Adapting Network Visibility
Architecture to Hybrid, Multi-Cloud TransformationEMA research found that the
majority of companies (56%) identify hybrid and/or multi-cloud archi-tecture as
a major driver of investments in network visibility solutions. The rate is even
higher among companies that have adopted three or more cloud providers (65%).
Not only must they spend on network visibility in the cloud and make sure their
observability and security monitoring tools are strengthened with network
intelligence, but these companies must also unify that visibility with their
existing on-premises network visibility architecture. Fifty percent of the
organziations that are most successful with their visibility solutions believe
that this unified approach to visibility is very important. By establishing a
unified, hybrid cloud visibility architecture, IT and security teams can reduce
data conflicts between silos of visibility, unify management of the
architecture, and stamp out blind spots that might occur both between cloud
environments and within individual cloud envi-ronments (for example, east-west
and intercontainer traffic). In fact, enterprises have told EMA that their
number-one architecture management requirement of visibility vendors is
multi-cloud architecture management. IT organizations want their visibility
vendors to provide an end-to-end visibility management framework across public
and private infrastructure. The majority of companies (56%) identify hybrid
and/or multi-cloud architecture as a major driver of investments in network
visibility solutions.

ANALYST REPORT: SANS 2022 CLOUD SECURITY SURVEY

Over the past several years, we have seen more and more examples of
vulnerabilities in cloud assets, cloud service provider outages, sensitive data
disclosure, and breaches involving the use of public cloud environments. Some
examples of security issues in the cloud in 2021 include:Amazon Web Services
