Abstract
An apparatus comprises a processing device configured to receive, at a user interface of a trust platform configured to manage cloud assets operating in clouds of two or more cloud service providers, a specification of security and compliance policies of a given entity. The processing device is also configured to generate, based at least in part on the specified security and compliance policies of the given entity, security and compliance controls to be implemented for workloads of the given entity running on a subset of the cloud assets operating in the clouds of the two or more cloud service providers. The processing device is further configured to deploy, utilizing application programming interfaces of the trust platform, the generated security and compliance controls on first and second pluralities of monitoring tools operating in tenant and management environments of the clouds of the two or more cloud service providers.
