AI Threats Escalate in 2025 Cloud Security Report
Home » Emerging technologies » Cloud Computing » AI Threats Escalate in 2025 Cloud Security Report Gigamon, a leader in deep observability, has released its 2025 Hybrid Cloud Security Survey. The annual report revealed mounting pressure on hybrid cloud environments due to the growing influence of artificial intelligence (AI). The third edition of the survey gathered responses from over 1,000 global Security and IT leaders. Findings showed a sharp rise in cyberthreats, with breach rates reaching 55 percent. This marks a 17 percent year-over-year increase. Gigamon reported that AI-generated attacks are a key driver behind this surge. Security and IT teams are struggling to cope. According to the World Economic Forum, the global cost of cybercrime is now estimated at $3 trillion. The report revealed organizations face challenges like fragmented cloud systems, limited intelligence, and ineffective security tools. Gigamon's study highlighted several critical trends: 46% of leaders ranked AI-generated threats as their top priority. 58% reported an increase in AI-powered ransomware, up from 41% in 2024. 47% said attacks on large language model (LLM) deployments are rising. Additionally, 91 percent of leaders admitted to making trade-offs when securing their hybrid cloud infrastructure. The lack of clean, high-quality data and poor visibility into lateral network movement were key reasons. Public cloud security is now under scrutiny. Gigamon revealed that 70 percent of leaders view it as the most risky environment. As a result, many organizations are reconsidering their strategies. Around 70 percent are thinking of moving data back to private clouds. Moreover, 54 percent are hesitant to use AI in public cloud setups due to concerns about intellectual property. Visibility remains a key concern. The report found that 64 percent of organizations plan to prioritize real-time threat monitoring. However, 55 percent lack confidence in their current tools' ability to detect breaches. Deep observability is gaining ground. Gigamon announced that 89 percent of respondents see it as vital for managing hybrid cloud security. Executive boards are also taking notice, with 83 percent now discussing deep observability as a strategic issue. Mark Jow, EMEA technical evangelist at Gigamon, stated that deep observability helps eliminate visibility gaps and restore control. He explained that integrating network-derived telemetry with MELT data enhances situational awareness. Freshfields CISO Mark Walmsley supported this view. He emphasized that visibility into AI systems and data flows is crucial. According to Walmsley, deep observability enables early threat detection and risk mitigation. Gigamon concluded that deep observability is quickly becoming essential for securing AI deployments and protecting hybrid cloud environments.

Gigamon 2025 Survey: 91 Percent of Security Leaders Are Recalibrating Hybrid Cloud Risk in the AI Era
New research shows AI is driving cybersecurity compromises amid rising data volumes, LLM threats, and growing public cloud concerns SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 21, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Gigamon, a leader in deep observability, today released its 2025 Hybrid Cloud Security Survey, revealing that hybrid cloud infrastructure is under mounting strain from the growing influence of artificial intelligence (AI). The annual study, now in its third year, surveyed over 1,000 global Security and IT leaders across Australia, France, Germany, Singapore, the U.K., and the United States. As cyberthreats increase in both scale and sophistication, breach rates have surged to 55 percent during the past year, representing a 17 percent year-on-year (YoY) rise, with AI-generated attacks emerging as a key driver of this growth. Security and IT teams are being pushed to a breaking point, with the economic cost of cybercrime now estimated at $3 trillion worldwide according to the World Economic Forum. As AI-enabled adversaries grow more agile, organizations are challenged with ineffective and inefficient tools, fragmented cloud environments, and limited intelligence. Key Findings Highlight How AI Is Reshaping Hybrid Cloud Security Priorities AI's role in escalating network complexity and accelerating risk is evident. The study reveals that 46 percent of Security and IT leaders say managing AI-generated threats is now their top security priority. One in three organizations report that network data volumes have more than doubled in the past two years due to AI workloads, while nearly half of all respondents (47 percent) are seeing a rise in attacks targeting their organization's large language model (LLM) deployments. More than half (58 percent) say they've seen a surge in AI-powered ransomware—up from 41 percent in 2024 underscoring how adversaries are exploiting AI to outpace and outflank existing defenses. Compromises highlight continued trade-offs in foundational areas of hybrid cloud security. Nine out of ten (91 percent) Security and IT leaders concede to making compromises in securing and managing their hybrid cloud infrastructure. The key challenges that create these compromises include the lack of clean, high-quality data to support secure AI workload deployment (46 percent) and lack of comprehensive insight and visibility across their environments, including lateral movement in East-West traffic (47 percent). Public cloud risks prompt industry recalibration. Once considered an acceptable risk in the rush to scale post-COVID operations, the public cloud is now coming under increasingly intense scrutiny. Many organizations are rethinking their cloud strategies in the face of their growing exposure, with 70 percent of Security and IT leaders now viewing the public cloud as a greater risk than any other environment. As a result, 70 percent report their organization is actively considering repatriating data from public to private cloud due to security concerns and 54 percent are reluctant to use AI in public cloud environments, citing fears around intellectual property protection. Visibility is top of mind for Security leaders. As cyberattacks become more sophisticated, the limitations of existing security tools are coming sharply into focus. Organizations are shifting their priorities toward gaining complete visibility into their environments, a capability now seen as crucial for effective threat detection and response. More than half (55 percent) of respondents lack confidence in their current tools' ability to detect breaches, citing limited visibility as the core issue. As a result, 64 percent say their number one focus for the next 12 months is achieving real-time threat monitoring delivered through having complete visibility into all data in motion. Deep Observability Becomes the New Standard With AI driving unprecedented traffic volumes, risk, and complexity, nearly nine in 10 (89 percent) Security and IT leaders cite deep observability as fundamental to securing and managing hybrid cloud infrastructure. Executive leadership is taking notice, as boards increasingly prioritize complete visibility into all data in motion, with 83 percent confirming that deep observability is now being discussed at the board level to better protect hybrid cloud environments. "This year's survey signals a profound shift in risk management priorities, and the time has come to recalibrate how hybrid cloud infrastructure is secured and managed in the AI era," said Chaim Mazal, chief security officer at Gigamon. "Deep observability provides that recalibration by combining traditional log data with network-derived telemetry, giving security teams the clarity to see through encrypted traffic, detect AI-powered threats, and strengthen defenses before the blast radius expands. With 88 percent of Security and IT leaders recognizing its importance for securing AI deployments, this approach has become foundational to modern cybersecurity." "With nearly half of organizations saying attackers are already targeting their large language models, AI security can't be an afterthought, it needs to be a top priority," said Mark Walmsley, CISO at Freshfields. "The key to staying ahead? Visibility. When we can clearly see what's happening across AI systems and data flows, we can cut through the noise and manage risk more effectively. Deep observability helps us spot vulnerabilities early and put the right protections in place before issues arise." About the survey The 2025 Hybrid Cloud Security Survey was commissioned by Gigamon and fielded in collaboration with Vitreous World. The data is based on findings of an online survey of 1,021 global respondents Feb. 21- Mar. 7, 2025.
