Risorse Software di Sicurezza Cloud

Nessuno dovrebbe essere sorpreso che Amazon possieda la quota maggiore del mercato del cloud computing.

Ricordo—e molti di noi possono relazionarsi a questo—di aver preso i fogli delle radiografie da un medico e di averli portati a un altro per farmi mettere un gesso.

Le applicazioni moderne inviano e ricevono una quantità insondabile di dati in qualsiasi momento. Questo flusso di dati è alimentato attraverso le interfacce di programmazione delle applicazioni (API).

Non tutte le nuvole sono create uguali, almeno non in termini di sicurezza.

L'adozione rapida dei servizi di cloud computing ha dato alle aziende un falso senso di sicurezza quando si tratta di proteggere i loro dati.

In a digital age, data security is a top priority, but it can be difficult to know who exactly is  responsible for securing sensitive information. While companies may feel they have sufficiently secured their own data, those that utilize SaaS vendors in their business put their sensitive information and business data in the hands of these vendors, who store it in the cloud or on-premises at their location. There are a number of security considerations and variables a business should keep in mind, especially related to cloud security. But it's helpful to remember one simple question when considering vendors or evaluating current protection efforts: Does the country housing my data care about security? Countries that do have taken action to protect personal and business data stored in their country or region. Other efforts to protect personal information include enforcing security standards, developing national cybersecurity strategies, and providing public awareness campaigns, among others. Countries that received lower scores have done less to ensure businesses are protecting data and require less transparency between data collectors and individuals.  In a globalized world, servers could be housed in any number of countries other than the one your business or a software vendor operates in. Still, it should be considered a potential red flag if vendors operate out of extremely vulnerable geographical regions.  Every year, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) releases the results of a worldwide security survey titled the United Nations Global Cybersecurity Index (CGI). The index provides an overall security rating based on a number of factors related to legislative, organizational, technical, capacity building, and international cooperation.
