Cloud Computing - How it Affect You?

Image
We have been always for the watch for the 'next best thing' when it comes to technology along with the Internet. Certainly no one can possibly doubt that the next generation from the Internet (called Blogging platforms) has received a dramatic affect on what people interact and connect to one another - both from somebody standpoint and a business one. Another emerging concept which has the ability to change how we perform tasks takes place before us too, and it is called 'cloud computing.' In other words, it does not take capacity to use resources and tools online without actually owning or just being near them. Really the only requirement is usually to be able to access them. The phrase 'cloud' is utilized to suggest the entire of computing services accessible via the Internet. It's an all-encompassing description from the complex internet-connected networks which exist in datacenters around the globe that power services and applications behind the sc

Embracing Secure Document Sharing in The UK Public Sector

Image
In theory, any solution that enables a more agile public sector, placing it in a better position to share knowledge and serve its citizens with maximum efficiency, has to be welcomed - and certainly, there's no question that cloud computing and secure document sharing has been recognised for its relevance to present governmental anxieties. This is an era, characterised by monumental national deficits, in which public sector organisations have been increasingly asked to do more with less. They have been urged to reduce their operational budgets, while not letting up on the quest to provide a more "joined-up" government experience to citizens. Much emphasis has been placed on how the reduction of bureaucracy and costs doesn't have to compromise the work of central government departments, local authorities and other public bodies. Or at least, it doesn't when such organisations embrace cloud services bringing such benefits as secure file sharing, to make sh

Why Should Companies Invest in Enterprise-grade Secure File Sharing?

Image
People need to share data. File sharing has existed in one form or another since way before the cloud, the internet, and computers. It started with copying text by hand, and evolved to reel-to-reel audio tape duplication which led to the birth of the cassette tape. Later, the floppy disk came to prevalence, followed by the compact disc (the humble CD) and the memory stick. Secure file sharing consisted of ensuring things were delivered by hand by a trusted source, or posted with insurance. But even then, information could be intercepted and stolen in transit. Floppy disks could be stolen. Paper documents could be photocopied. Tapes could be duplicated. Memory sticks could be lost. All could be easily destroyed or corrupted. The internet changed everything. Finally, we could share files and documents with one another without having to transfer them to a vulnerable physical medium. Instead, they could be shared directly over the internet. As the internet became more powerful, the

Cyber -Security Requires a Multi-Layered Approach

Image
The internet has become a primary conduit for cyber-attack activities, with hackers channeling threats through social-engineering attacks and even using legitimate websites, meaning that more people are at greater risk than ever before. Financial fraud, phishing, malware, man-in-the-middle, man-in-the-browser and man-in-the-mobile attacks continually result in huge losses for consumers and companies alike. This has prompted the cyber security technology market to flourish and make significant strides in revenue. However, it's important not to lose sight of the fact that the end goal is to protect as many end users as possible. The criminals target end users to make money, and as cyber security providers, we need to protect consumers and companies from these targeted attacks. To successfully thwart attacks, a multi-layered approach to security is best. A multi-layered approach can be tailored to different levels of security. Not every asset needs to be completely secure; instea

What Is a Cyber Security Risk Assessment and Why Do One ?

Image
Modern day companies face serious dangers from the cyber domain. The FBI recently reported that cybercrime increased 24% last year. The time has come for businesses to become proactive and conduct a cyber security risk assessment. It focuses on identifying the threats and vulnerabilities that confront an organization's information assets. Threats are forces that can harm organizations and destroy mission critical data. Vulnerabilities are the pathways that threats can follow to damage, steal, destroy or deny the use of information assets. Risks are realized when threats converge with vulnerabilities. Devastating losses can occur in a variety of ways. A cyber risk assessment produces an understanding of the consequences associated with unauthorized disclosure of an organization's confidential or mission critical information. A business owner or governing authority, with the results of a cyber risk assessment in hand, can decide to accept the risk, develop and use dep

Emerging Cyber -Security Technologies in 2017

Image
IT security as we know it is experiencing a revolution. The vast number of legacy systems are replaced by storage and transmission systems that are more complex, mobile, wireless, and even hardware independent. The war between data defenders and data thieves has been described as a cat-and-mouse game. As soon as the white hats counter one form of black-hat malicious behavior, another malevolent form rears its ugly head. How can the playing field be tilted in favor of the InfoSec warriors? The answer lies in these emerging technologies of this year. Hardware authentication The inadequacies of usernames and passwords are well known. Clearly, a more secure form of authentication is needed. One method is to bake authentication into a user's hardware. Intel is moving in that direction with the Authenticate solution in its new, sixth-generation Core vPro processor. It can combine a variety of hardware-enhanced factors at the same time to validate a user's identity. Hardware

Image
Legacy systems are a part of most IT infrastructures and with time, their sustenance costs and lack of performance only makes them a huge liability on any business.
