[CSA Report] Sensitive Data in the Cloud

The Cloud Security Alliance was commissioned by Anjuna to develop a survey and report to better understand the industry’s knowledge, attitudes, and opinions regarding sensitive data in the cloud. Anjuna financed the project and co-developed the questionnaire by participating with CSA research analysts. The survey was conducted online by CSA in April 2022 and received 452 responses from IT and security professionals from various organization sizes and locations. CSA’s research team performed the data analysis and interpretation for this report.

Goals of the Study The goal of this survey was to understand the following:

• Cloud use and data security needs
• Security priorities and challenges for the next year
• Approach to hosting sensitive data and workloads in the cloud
• Familiarity with cloud and data security technologies
