Why The Cloud Is More Secure Than Your Own Server

InformationWeek: Why The Cloud Is More Secure Than Your Own Server

InformationWeek’s Andrew Conry-Murray offers four security advantages that cloud computing users enjoy.


“1. Running a secure operation requires a lot of attention to administrative detail, which can be challenging for a small IT group. When you’re putting out a dozen fires per day, it’s easy to misconfigure a system or neglect a patch. There’s less chance that that a large public cloud provider will overlook such fundamentals.

2. When it comes to the underlying infrastructure, cloud environments tend to offer a limited selection, which enforces simplicity.”
