    TechCentral Webinar: Debunking common myths to get to cloud security truths

    Every field has its persistent myths and misconceptions, and cloud security may be one of the most myth-heavy!

    Thanks to so much change in the field in such a short time, there is probably as much confusion out there about the current state of cloud security as there is understanding of the facts.

    As a leader in cloud security, Palo Alto Networks – powered by Westcon – can help you sort it all out.

    Join our conversation around separating myth from reality. Here we will be debunking three of the most common — and stubborn – cloud-native security myths. You’ll leave the webinar with a clearer understanding of today’s cloud-native security facts.

    We will tackle the common misconceptions that:

    • The public cloud is more secure than an on-premises data centre
    • DevSecOps is just adding “security” or “scanning” to DevOps
    • Cloud service providers natively deliver all the security controls a company needs
