Or was it a normal year for cloud security, and we just got better at discovering attacks?

If you've ever worked at a large company, you'd find it absolutely unbelievable that 2014 had an unprecedented number or scope of cracks.

A lot of web-facing, enterprise software is a landfill of abandoned code, unnecessary abstractions, and random hacks thrown in at the last minute to meet a deadline. "Security" for stuff like that is an illusion.
