This checklist outlines a practical five-step approach to securing multi-cloud infrastructure in environments where constant change and human error make manual security ineffective. It emphasizes discovering and mapping cloud assets across providers, managing static configuration risk through CSPM, reducing identity and permission risk with least-privilege controls, and continuously detecting and responding to threats by correlating runtime insights with posture data to prioritize real risk. The final step focuses on validating compliance and governance using policy-as-code and automated reporting for major frameworks. The central theme is that visibility, automation, and runtime context are essential to reducing noise, preventing breaches, and maintaining compliance at cloud speed.
