For CTOs and CXOs, security can no longer be a reactive checkpoint added at the end of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). The rise of software supply chain attacks-where vulnerabilities are injected into upstream libraries, third-party dependencies, or development tooling-demands a fundamental transformation.

The move to Serverless architecture-where the cloud provider manages the underlying infrastructure, operating systems, and capacity provisioning-represents a fundamental break from traditional cloud computing.

For many CTOs and CXOs, the initial implementation of DevOps successfully broke down barriers between development and operations. However, as cloud environments scale and the number of microservices explodes, reliance on individual DevOps teams to manage bespoke infrastructure for every product often leads to fragmentation, duplicated effort, and slowing innovation velocity.
