Many businesses have concerns about Cloud security, especially with recent headlines such as Amazon’s cloud outage. Issues such as privacy and data breach issues are significant worries when a company considers switching to the Cloud and it’s easy to understand why – Cloud computing means moving some or most of your data to a third party location outside of your servers or hard drives.
But the fact is that Cloud Computing is not a new trend in IT world. In fact, you probably are using elements of cloud computing in your everyday life. If you use e-mails services such as G-Mail or Yahoo Mail, you are already in the cloud. All your e-mails (data) are saved in servers outside your home or business and you need a web browser and internet connection to access your data, and this is what cloud computing is all about: storing your data and application in a remote server which you can access via web.
Your online banking is also a form of cloud computing, you need to log on a remote server, via your bank website to access your account information which contains your banking data. Almost everyone uses some form of online banking, without even realizing that such concepts are forms of cloud computing. Online banking or mobile apps are a safe and secure way of making banking easy and accessible; so is cloud computing for your company.
