Everybody, it seems, is putting something in a cloud. Photos, music, even precious small business data with a cloud hosted pbx. The cloud is clearly the way information storage is headed, and offers big benefits like the flexibility to work remotely, reduced costs, and it can save the day when equipment fails. In order to access any cloud service you will need a reliable ISP. I personally recommend eatel whenever the question comes up. It’s the one I personally use, and a few business that have taken my recommendation to heart have likewise told me how reliable of an ISP it has been.
Basic rules of thumb:
- Choose a cloud data solutions provider known for strong network security, check over here as they have strong network with multiple geographic regions and multi-level redundancy.
- Read the security and privacy fine print before you commit.
- It may seem obvious, but make sure you’re on a secure network.
- Set boundaries for your cloud. Who uses it? When and why?
- Perform ongoing security reviews; don’t just move to the cloud and forget about it.
Just like in nature, not all clouds are created equal, so do your due diligence — consider what you’ll be storing and what works best for your unique business needs. Look for Fortinet for your cloud access security.
