Keeping IT networks and data secure is critical to business. The need for more cost-effective storage and software solutions together with mobile access continues to drive the adoption of cloud computing. – and while cloud computing opens new opportunities, it also presents a number of security risks to company information
So, as organizations embrace new digital ways of working, its unsurprising that upcoming regulations and the increasing number of sophisticated cyber-attacks are driving the need for greater transparency and trust in the cloud.
Through the implementation of CSA STAR Certification, in addition to a compliant ISO/IEC 27001 information security management system, organizations can ensure that they have a full understanding of the risks involved and the business impacts. This allows organizations to put controls in place to protect business critical information.
