Strategy report | PPTX and PDF (6 slides) | NaaS Platforms and Infrastructure
Organisations that operate in multi-cloud environments can struggle to configure consistent security policies, maintain visibility across platforms and automate identity and access management (IAM) processes. Multi-cloud network-as-a-service (NaaS) providers have the opportunity to address these challenges by offering IAM solutions and using decentralised identity models to help enterprises to achieve zero-trust security, comply with data privacy/sovereignty regulations and support Web 3.0 use cases.
