One of the significant challenges customers face with hybrid work is the exponential increase in cloud data. As more employees work remotely and use cloud services, the amount of data stored and processed in the cloud grows dramatically. This increase brings challenges related to data management, security, and compliance.

1.Data Management: Managing the large volumes of data generated by hybrid work environments can be complex and resource-intensive.

2.Security: Ensuring the security of data across various cloud platforms and services becomes more challenging with the increased data volume.

3.Compliance: Meeting regulatory requirements for data protection and privacy can be more difficult as data spreads across multiple cloud environments.
