A cybersecurity talent shortage and concerns over data breaches has many CISOs delaying cloud migrations.

Virtually all organizations are moving some workflows and assets to the cloud. But concerns over security controls and a talent shortage has many CISOs worried, with 40% of companies slowing migration due to these issues, according to a recent report
While 83% of IT professionals said they store sensitive data in the public cloud, only 69% said they trust the public cloud to keep their data secure, the report found. Cloud security issues are rampant: One in four organizations that use Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) or Software as a Service (SaaS) have had their data stolen, according to the report. Meanwhile, one in five said they have experienced an advanced attack against their public cloud infrastructure. 
"We get a lot of inquiries in terms of how to protect your data in the cloud, how to move your identities to the cloud, and how you do network security," said Andras Cser, vice president and principal analyst at Forrester. "A lot of times we see folks even holding off of security projects in this area."
