Background for this topic.

Cloud computing involves delivering computing services—such as storage, processing, and networking—over the internet using remote data centers. This model enables organizations to scale resources dynamically without owning physical infrastructure. In security terms, the cloud environment is defined by multi-tenant infrastructure where multiple customers share hardware and software resources managed by a cloud provider.

Key security concerns include controlling access through strong identity and access management (IAM), protecting data with encryption both at rest and in transit, and managing vulnerabilities in shared infrastructure components. The cloud’s shared responsibility model requires customers to secure their applications and data while providers secure the underlying platform. Misconfigurations, weak access controls, and insufficient monitoring can expose cloud assets to unauthorized access or data leakage, making precise configuration and continuous security assessment essential.

CyberArk and Accenture Experts Discuss Modernization, Identity Sprawl, Securing AIFinancial services organizations are accelerating modernization efforts by adopting artificial intelligence, automation and DevOps-driven cloud development, but these initiatives have dramatically expanded their attack surface. As banks and financial enterprises rely more heavily on non-human identities to power applications, integrations and AI-driven workflows, security leaders are struggling to manage the volume, velocity and variety of machine identities across cloud and on-premises environments, said Barak Feldman, senior vice president of solutions engineering at CyberArk, and Rex Thexton, senior managing director at Accenture.
