According to Gartner, human error will account for 99% of all cloud security failures by 2025. When developing business apps, human error is an ever-present risk. On the other hand, deploying assets on the public cloud comes with significant risk.

What an interesting take @mahendkr72 , however, I believe 99% might be too much of a stretch at this time when we factor in the further development of cyber related artificial intelligence in 2025. Yes, human error is indeed a big factor in protecting healthcare patient data and privacy and some studies have mentioned is upto at least 80% of cloud security breaches, but implementing agile cloud security practices into Cloud identity and access authorization security measures like encryption, MFA verifications, and privileged access management has proven to reduce cloud risk failures in organizations in my experience.
