How to deal with Data Security Issues in Cloud Computing

Cloud computing, without a doubt, has become the numero uno choice for many

businesses. Besides bringing down IT costs, it provides the much-needed agility to

businesses, paves the way for new business models and scalability. That said, one still can’t

to your vital business information.

Questions like these and the following factors still make businesses wary of cloud

computing:

Multiple tenants share the same infrastructure available over the cloud No regulations for cloud service providers to clear disk space and ensure that

existing data is not compromised No way out to keep a check on IT security intelligence and lack of risk management Chances of data exposure to a person who does not even work for the respective

company Problems related to data mobility and legal issues
