TOP REASONS WHY ENDPOINT

SECURITY SHOULD MOVE TO

CLOUD

Top Reasons why Endpoint Security should move to Cloud

The Cloud is changing the way IT services and solutions are delivered. Software

as a Service (SaaS) tools, Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a

Service (PaaS) Cloud are making it possible for your organization to enable cost

savings, integration, visibility and scalability in the cloud architecture.

This transformation has resulted in increased awareness about your endpoint

security. Here’s why Cloud makes it possible for your security teams to regain

control over endpoints.

Gain Intel from Hackers’ Attack

Hackers are usually funded by parties with deep pockets and political interests.

They get hold of the on premise security solutions and analyse them to gain

insights into their weak points and vulnerabilities.

This is not possible in the Cloud architecture as every attack is recorded,

analysed and shared with sensors on every defenders’ machine, preventing that

attack from being used again. In this way the Cloud model changes the security.

Every attack is a learning experience for others

Cloud architecture provides the ability to record and learn from new attacks.

The intelligence gathered about the attack techniques will provide better

insights, and security for every community member, which can be effectively

shared to protect every endpoint across the community in real time.

The cloud architecture supports real-time, behavioural analysis and response to

both known and unknown threats. It provides an adaptive security model with

full visibility into the end point, which allows your defences to be created in real

time.

Safeguard sensitive customer information

The biggest concern for the organization is the way in which security data is

collected and stored. It should limit this data collection to bare minimum to

ensure proper protection. This means transmitting and storing only endpoint

activity metadata such as process start/stop times, network connection activity,

etc. It should ignore potentially sensitive data residing on the endpoint.

The cloud providers should hold high standards for security, availability,

processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy. They should adhere to the

complaint policies and must provide a multi-tenant platform that isolates

individual customer information, while maintaining privacy.

Protection both On and Off the network

In today’s Bring Your Own Device mobile workforce, users are working from

home and on the road. The endpoint security provided by the cloud makes it

possible to manage remote devices and assets easily, both on and off the VPN

network. It makes the IT personnel from managing the IT infrastructure as it is

taken care of by the cloud provider.

Delayed response to intrusions

The average response to an on premise security breach is a couple of days, as

vendors must take preventive actions. The time constraint to mitigate the risks

involves physical equipment and personnel; is advantages to the intruders.

With a Cloud endpoint solution, it is possible to get remote incident responders

the right information immediately. The security analysts can start work right

away and respond much more swiftly.

Cloud Scalability

The traditional on-premises endpoint security solutions are constrained by the

growing needs of your organization. As your needs grow, so does your

infrastructure, making it very complex to manage its security.

Scalability represents an additional advantage to Cloud architecture. It is

possible for information to be centralized and access controls make it possible

to ensure only the right people can see the data they need to get their job done.

Everything scales dynamically so that you always pay only for the security

solutions that you need. This is one of the most often reason for moving to the

cloud.
