BetaNews | "The vast majority of all the known cloud data breaches to date have been caused by configuration errors, which is a polite way of saying human error or lack of knowledge is at fault... In fact, configuration errors have become so common in cloud-based migrations and application deployments that, many times, cybercriminals don't even bother with sophisticated attacks; they simply look for gaping holes in security defenses due to misconfigurations," says Zach Malone, security engineer at FireMon. (Here at BetterCloud, we've been talking about configuration errors in SaaS apps for a looong time. We see it all too often. It's why
we built BetterCloud to listen for any risky changes in application configurations and then remediate them with automated workflows.)
