- Identity based access controls - network access controls are useless in cloud computing, but our ability to create granular access controls based on identity is not mature yet
- Multi tenancy
- Continuous monitoring
- Automation and devops - Security automation is still maturing. We still don't know how to integrate developers and operation without breaking best practices
