The importance of security behind digital transformations has never been more relevant. Digital transformation is not only changing all of your business processes, but also moving all your security business systems to the cloud. These kinds of transitions can cause a lot of security risk, requiring a lot of trust on the end of the organization, but also the ability to verify that the processes and systems are still safe and secure.
