Security in the Cloud
Once used for its fluid distribution of applications or user accounts across multiple data centers, Cloud Computing requires your business to take a new approach to security, focusing on the network perimeter level, data security, risk management, and audits. In addition to our proactive approach to security management, we limit your security burden with focused engineering and fine-tuning to assist companies in securing on-premises or hybrid-cloud applications like Microsoft Office 365.
Five Critical Considerations for Cloud
Our innovative IT experts will help you navigate these decisions for your specific business needs and environment.
Identify And Implement
Begin looking at your options for cloud vendors, look to define what type of cloud is needed (Public/Hybrid/Private) for the future of your business. What do you want the cloud’s function to be?
Cost Barriers
Cloud computing offers options for businesses with user counts that fluctuate. Weigh your options between fixed and variable cloud costs. Does it make sense for your business and technology?
Performance and Availability
Your cloud is only as fast as your internet connection. Does your Internet bandwidth match or exceed the bandwidth needed for these servers and applications? Will your systems need constant availability?
Security and Protection
It’s become essential to always back up and plan for the event of a crash or loss of access. Ensure a safe cloud environment, always control access to data and protect the systems that store it.
Compliance and Regulations
Always enforce compliance requirements and ensure your cloud provider uses a confidentiality clause. Perform regular updates to staff permissions and access rights.
