Where to find cloud security professionals in order to convert them to customers

The idea that helps Cloud Security Professionals

Cloud Security Professionals want to secure cloud infrastructures and data. However, they can't get it because they struggle with identifying and addressing misconfigurations in cloud environments.

Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. CloudSecPro.

Automated Cloud Security Misconfiguration Detection : CloudSecPro is a tool that scans cloud environments for misconfigurations and provides automated remediation steps to enhance security. Of course it is much better than the stuff from DivvyCloud, RedLock by Palo Alto Networks, or Evident.io!

How to find Cloud Security Professionals

You can get insights about the pain points of cloud security professionals if you listen to them carefully, either in person or online. Listening online is much easier because you need not ask them for a customer interview but you can observe them talking about their problems, out there in their natural habitat. They won’t even notice that you are there, watching and listening to them.

The process, step by step

One process that we can totally recommend is this:

  • Find out where cloud security professionals hang out (Reddit, Mastodon, etc.)
  • Read what problems they talk about, and how urgent they are to them. (Did they try any solutions, yet? Did they spend money on anything, yet? Did they even cobble a homegrown solution together?)
  • Enter the conversation: Help them with tips, ask more about their situation and why they are in pain.
  • If you find recurring questions or pet peeves of cloud security professionals, create some helpful content for them (e.g. a blog post, a podcast episode, or a video) and share it with them for free, in the same conversations. They will be delighted.
  • At the end of the blog post, invite them to use your solution: Automated Cloud Security Misconfiguration Detection.
