Cloud Computing vs. The Cybercriminals
The current development of information technology along with global telecommunications presents business management professionals with a difficult task to select among different solutions to fulfill their requirements in areas such as web hosting and data management. The choices often become more complicated when they need to read between the lines when reviewing the many promises concerning the performance of these products. Often the marketing hype glosses over the critical issues of data integrity and overall security.
The exploitation of the Internet for criminal purposes is an inviting “workspace” for those clever and gifted individuals who have chosen to use their abilities for malicious and illicit intentions. Online crime is particularly inviting due to the distance that separates the perpetrator from their unwary victims, since often victims are unaware of their loss until later. These cunning cybercriminals have become increasingly sophisticated each and every day. Early in the history of cybercrime, threats and attempts to carry out such crimes were fewer and intrinsically static. This allows the use of relatively simple pattern-file schemes to protect data. Now, threats in the thousands occur on a daily basis and threats often utilize multiple methods that will often evade the most sophisticated security methodologies, resulting in numerous losses of business and personal information. Due to these general increases there has been a dramatic increase in the volume of pattern file accesses, which has a significant impact on overall network performance. Cloud Computing is the next-generation content security and infrastructure technology that has been designed to protect computer users from these types of threats while at the same time minimizing the impact on network and system performance. Through the application use of both advanced expertise in delivering the primary content security systems and with real-time feedback from the many customer locations, cloud computing security systems are able to correlate data from multiple sources, this enabling the system to deliver full threat identification and protection. This Cloud Computing system is employed in on-site and hosted web, messaging, and endpoint security points to provide protection of the company’s critical information and personal identity. The result is that dangerous threats are identified and thwarted in real time before they can affect the end user.
