Example Concept: In a multi-cloud environment, security teams must implement consistent identity and access management (IAM), encryption, and monitoring across various cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. This involves using centralized security management tools and ensuring compliance with frameworks like CIS Controls. In contrast, hybrid cloud security requires secure VPNs or dedicated connections to bridge on-premises and cloud resources, focusing on data protection and secure application integration, often aligning with NIST CSF guidelines.
