Cloud Security and What Your Small Business Needs to Know

by | Cloud

Hello Autumn Breeze and Crunchy Leaves! 

As we enjoy the close of summer with our friends and family, we know we soon will be saying goodbye to the picnics in the park and preparing for the holidays around the corner. As we picnicked, we looked up to see the clouds against our frequently blue skies.  

Most common among these are the stratus, the cumulus, and the wispy cirrus clouds. Strati are the low-level ones that create drizzle. Cumulus are the ones that are like cotton balls, and cirrus are the high-level feathery ones.  

None of them require security in any way.  

And if they did, we would not be the team to provide it.  

 

We prefer to do our business a little closer to the ground

We are definitely the team to provide both a cloud platform and its security to you and your business. Cloud-based infrastructure is important and creates great benefits for your business including a significant cost reduction, business efficiency, the ability to scale, and flexibility over where you can physically run your business. Our team is ready and able to convert your legacy system to a cloud-based one as soon as you are ready to tap into its inherent benefits.  

The Cyber Ascend Technology team is proud to consist of your Santa Cruz and Scotts Valley friends and neighbors. Each of our team members seeks to be of value to the communities in this area that we love so much.  

 

As we set up your cloud platform with the right cloud provider, here are the things you need to know about the security they can provide:
1. There are a number of security-oriented systems you can get from your cloud provider

These include firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and data encryption. These systems can help to protect your data and systems from a variety of threats. 

2. Cloud providers can help you to meet compliance requirements

Many cloud providers offer compliance certifications, such as ISO 27001 and SOC 2. These certifications can help you to demonstrate to your customers and partners that you are taking security seriously. 

3. Cloud providers can help you manage your security risks

Cloud providers can help you to assess your security risks and develop a plan to mitigate them. They can also provide you with 24/7 monitoring and support to help you detect and respond to security incidents. 

4. Cloud providers can help you save money on security

Cloud providers can help you save money on security by providing you with a scalable and pay-as-you-go security solution. This can be a significant benefit for small businesses with limited security budgets. 

5. Cloud providers can help you to free up your IT resources

By outsourcing your security, you can free up your IT resources to focus on other areas of your business. This can help you to improve your agility and responsiveness. 

6. Cloud providers can help you to improve your security posture

Cloud providers have a deep understanding of cloud security and can help you to improve your security posture. They can provide you with best practices, training, and tools to help you protect your data and systems. 

7. Cloud providers can help you to stay up-to-date on the latest security threats

Cloud providers are constantly monitoring the latest security threats and vulnerabilities and taking steps to mitigate them. 

 

This is great, but how do I know where to begin?! 

By having CyAs Tech help you choose a cloud provider that offers managed security services, you can help protect your small business from security threats and improve your security posture. In this process, we make sure that the provider you choose has a strong track record of security. Our team understands the security features that are offered, and we can explain them to you while matching them to your specific needs. This includes making sure that the cloud provider can meet your compliance requirements if you are in a business that has regulation needs.  

Bottom line, if we are sharing sandwiches in the park, and you are curious about the formations in the sky above you, we aren’t that much help. For the clouds you can’t see, the one that protects your whole business and its assets, we are exactly the team you need.
