While organizations invest in secrets management solutions like AWS Secrets Manager—a fully managed service for storing, rotating, and retrieving credentials—security teams still face a fundamental challenge: you can’t secure what you can’t see.

As businesses continue moving critical workloads to the cloud, attackers are increasingly targeting identities, SaaS applications, and cloud configurations. While many organizations believe their cloud environments are secure, hidden risks often go unnoticed until it's too late. For MSPs, this presents an opportunity to deliver greater value while growing recurring security revenue.

Identities, permissions, exposed resources, and sensitive data can all contribute to risk regardless of whether they reside in AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud. However, security teams often encounter uneven visibility and coverage across disparate cloud environments, and face difficulty in consistently understanding risk across a multi-cloud estate.

On June 22, 2026, President Trump signed Executive Order 14409, "Securing the Nation Against Advanced Cryptographic Attacks." The order sets a December 31, 2030, deadline for federal agencies to transition their most sensitive systems to post-quantum encryption, and a December 31, 2031, deadline for post-quantum authentication. The EO also directs federal contractors to comply with post-quantum Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) by the end of 2030.
