Feels like we’re just putting all our stuff out there with a bow on it for a hacker. 🤷♀️

It’s neither more secure, nor less secure than anything else. It depends.
Instead of investing in your own, you use someone elses infrastructure or software to process your data.
Depending on which party you use to do this, it is more secure or less secure.You need to asses that your cloud service provider is more experienced/has more knowledge than you to do this safely. (Or is adequate for your needs)
What most people don’t realize is that very often you only outsource *processing* of your data, you are still responsible for the data itself and you need to ensure processing matches the (legal) requirements of the data: Ex: Check if there is security in place, do monitoring, create backups, …Offcourse, if legally allowed, you can outsource this too, but it is often not standard part of a cloud service/subscription.
