This checklist explains how organizations can secure cloud environments fast enough to meet the 5/5/5 benchmark, which targets detecting threats within five seconds, correlating and triaging within five minutes, and responding within the next five minutes. It stresses consolidating fragmented security tools into a unified CNAPP to reduce noise, improve visibility, and align detection with MITRE ATT&CK. The guide emphasizes hardening defenses by enriching cloud telemetry, correlating signals across tools, and improving response workflows, then highlights close collaboration with DevOps to automate detection and remediation through CI/CD and repeatable playbooks. The overall message is that speed, automation, and platform consolidation are essential to outpacing modern cloud attacks.
