Cloud Security

In the age of data, information is the single most valuable asset your organization possesses. A significant number of threats exists that could jeopardies the safety of that data. Cloud security solutions help to mitigate the risk that your organization, or your clients/customers, will be affected by a data breach. It also provides additional safeguards that deliver peace of mind where the safety and protection of your organization’s assets is concerned.

What Is Cloud Security?

Contrary to what you might think, cloud security is not a single thing. It requires more than just having the right antivirus program in place, or that your team is trained in password hygiene. Yes, antivirus software and correct password management practices are vital parts of protecting your information, particularly where phishing attacks are concerned. However, there’s a great deal more to it.

With traditional IT security, you had considerations like in-house data centers, the speed of scaling, and challenges with efficiency. These issues led to higher costs and a longer time to reach the market. With cloud security, you use third-party data centers and benefit from quick scalability, efficient utilization and allocation of resources, usage-based costs, and other benefits that improve efficiency overall and drive down time to market.

Of course, the right cloud platform plays a role here. Both AWS and Microsoft Azure offer outstanding security protocols and protection. However, you also need to address your in-house security posture and determine what changes and controls need to be put in place to further enhance your protection.

Why Choose Cloud Security?

There are numerous features that you should consider when choosing a cloud security solution, including the following:

Data Storage:

Where is your data stored? Is it protected in state-of-the-art data centers? What if your nation requires specific data to be stored within national borders? Does the cloud provider have a data storage facility within your nation to comply with these requirements?

Auditing:

How do you know that the cloud security service is doing its job? You cannot always depend on providers to self-audit accurately. A leading provider will offer third- party security auditing and reporting to ensure protection.

Compliance Requirements:

Is your organization part of an industry with stringent rules and regulations? If so, you need to ensure that the cloud security provider understands the compliance requirements and follows them at all times.
