State of Cloud Security 2025

Our annual survey of 1,200 enterprises examines the real state of cloud security posture. This year's edition covers multi-cloud misconfiguration trends, the growing gap between security tooling adoption and actual policy enforcement, and how incident response teams are adapting to cloud-native architectures.

Key Findings

  • 68% of respondents reported at least one cloud misconfiguration incident in the past 12 months
  • Mean time to detect cloud-specific breaches dropped from 197 days to 143 days year-over-year
  • Only 23% of organizations enforce infrastructure-as-code policy checks in their CI pipeline
  • Multi-cloud environments see 2.4x more configuration drift than single-cloud setups

Enterprise Backup Benchmark Report

A vendor-neutral comparison of enterprise backup solutions tested against real-world recovery scenarios. We measured recovery time objectives, deduplication efficiency, network bandwidth consumption, and total cost of ownership across eight leading platforms.

Key Findings

  • Average RTO varied by 340% across tested solutions for the same 10TB dataset
  • Deduplication ratios ranged from 4:1 to 12:1 depending on data type and solution
  • Cloud-tiered backup added 15-40% to annual costs but reduced on-prem storage needs by 60%
  • Only 2 of 8 vendors met their published RTO claims under realistic network conditions

Zero Trust Adoption Survey 2024

Zero trust has become the most overused term in cybersecurity marketing. This survey cuts through the positioning to assess where 900 organizations actually stand on implementation. We examine identity verification maturity, microsegmentation deployment, and the organizational friction that stalls most zero trust programs.

Key Findings

  • 82% of organizations say they have a zero trust strategy; only 14% have fully implemented one
  • Identity and access management is the most mature pillar (avg. 3.2/5 maturity score)
  • Microsegmentation remains the biggest blocker, with 61% still in pilot or planning phases
  • Organizations with a dedicated zero trust team are 3x more likely to reach full implementation

CI/CD Pipeline Maturity Index

Based on the DORA metrics framework, this report benchmarks deployment frequency, lead time for changes, change failure rate, and mean time to recovery across 800 engineering teams. We segment results by company size, industry, and toolchain to give you a realistic picture of where your team stands.

Key Findings

  • Top-performing teams deploy 208x more frequently than low performers
  • Lead time for changes has improved 31% year-over-year for teams using trunk-based development
  • Change failure rate correlates strongly with test coverage above the 70% threshold
  • Teams with on-call rotations recover from incidents 4x faster than those without
