About

The cloud is an inescapable buzzword when talking about data centres. Private, public and hybrid architectures give companies the flexibility and agility they need to efficiently manage workloads and make the most of their resources.

Businesses have been quick to latch onto the trend in recent years, opening up their digital infrastructure to vulnerabilities in the process. The cloud requires the same approach to cyber security as traditional IT environments and should be evaluated consistently to identify exploits before attackers can.

Office 365 Security Assessment

Office 365 has revolutionised how businesses operate, allowing employees to share information and workflows instantaneously through the cloud. Given the type of sensitive information stored on SharePoint, OneDrive and Exchange, it also makes the web service a high-value target for attackers.

Securing this data is a critical responsibility that organisations can achieve by working in tandem with Microsoft, and through taking full advantage of the security tools at their disposal. Our Office 365 security assessment helps companies align their security posture with industry best practices.

Cloud Security Assessments

Cyber security concerns don’t disappear when business data moves to the cloud.

Hybrid, public and private cloud architectures all present unique challenges when it comes to protecting sensitive information from attackers and maintaining compliance with all types of regulations.

Cloud readiness assessments help businesses assess the various risks associated with moving workloads off premises, and cloud security assessments evaluate their existing architecture and policies.

Integrity360 identifies the most affordable and efficient cloud migration strategy or cloud security strategy to align your company’s specific needs and objectives with a security-driven approach.

FAQ

What is shared responsibility and why should I care about it?

Cloud cyber security is a shared responsibility model between a vendor and its customer concerning compliance. Providers are responsible for protecting and maintaining the infrastructure that cloud services reside on; customers are accountable for the security of the data and applications that live on the cloud. Failure to take the steps to securing your cloud infrastructure would hold your business accountable in the instance of a data breach.

What are the risks of moving to the cloud?

Every digital infrastructure is unique and poses its own risks. Moving to the cloud can leave a company vulnerable to misconfigurations and other threats that could create more cyber risk than on-premise solutions can. Cloud readiness assessments determine how thoroughly planned out a cloud migration strategy is and look to remediate issues before they arise.

How do I mitigate risk on the cloud?

Misconfigurations, a lack of awareness around user access levels and missing cyber security tools can all lead to vulnerabilities that threat actors use to gain access to the network. Working with certified professionals can help you identify these threats and remediate them.

Cloud Security by the Numbers

Companies on the cloud are wasting roughly 35 percent of their budget due to misconfigurations, subpar migration strategies and other unforeseen costs.
