Do You Really Know How to Deal with Cloud Security?


Security Just Doesn’t Happen
You have to deal with it, every day…

It seems that everyone is in the cloud.

Most business owners, even those who haven’t actively sought out the use of cloud storage, still use cloud computing in their business.

Communication methods such as email and text messaging fall under the cloud computing umbrella because they take place over the internet and the information is stored remotely.

As cloud computing becomes more predominant, it’s also important to consider cloud security.

Cloud security, also referred to as cloud computing security, is a rapidly developing sub-domain of computer information security.

Included in cloud security are controls, technologies, and policies that protect the applications and information of individuals and businesses everywhere.

There’s really no way to get around the issue of dealing with cloud security, making the topic one that’s important for all business owners to understand.

Drive to the Office Comparison. Commute? No, Software


The chances are, if your job involves the use of an office suite, you will have used either Microsoft Office or Google Drive (formerly Google Docs), or both.

And, if you haven’t used either, you’ll almost certainly have heard of them.

Google Drive is a constantly iterating thing, with updates coming in small bites, rather than larger, one off updates, so it’s difficult to tie this suite down to a version.

Microsoft Office on the other hand, has been restricted to major updates (Office XP, Office 2007, Office 2010… you get the idea), and its latest offering, Office 365 (2013), is about to go up against Google Drive in the online space.

Jon Smith makes comparisons on the pros and cons for each…
