What is Multi-Cloud Security?

Multi-cloud security is the practice of protecting data, applications, and systems that are distributed across multiple cloud service providers. It involves implementing consistent security policies, access controls, threat detection, and compliance measures across all cloud platforms to ensure data integrity, privacy, and availability. This approach addresses the unique security challenges of managing diverse environments and reduces risks associated with cloud misconfigurations, data breaches, and vendor-specific vulnerabilities.
