60% Who Don’t Deploy CNAPPs Won’t Meet Zero Trust Goals by 2029

Gartner estimates that 60% of organizations who do not deploy a unified CNAPP solution within their cloud architecture will lack extensive visibility into the cloud attack surface and consequently fail to achieve their desired zero-trust goals.

Gartner developed this research for, “Security and risk management leaders responsible for cloud security
strategies,” to help them better analyze and evaluate the CNAPP market.

Key Findings

The attack surface of cloud-native applications and infrastructure is expanding, with attackers focusing on the runtime environment, including network, compute, storage, identities and permissions, and the misconfiguration of cloud management and control features.

The cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) market has witnessed substantial growth, accompanied by a trend of acquisitions and consolidations.

With operational responsibilities shifting toward developers and cloud architects, the need for advanced tools to address vulnerabilities, deploy infrastructure as code and manage production implementations has grown to accommodate this expanded scope.

Proactively identifying and prioritizing risks during development, while providing developers with adequate context, is essential due to developers perceiving security as an obstacle.
