Cloud Usage At All Time High

14/05/20 14:02:00

COVID-19 has radically changed the way we work, with the usage of cloud infrastructure and application services at an all-time high.

The advantages to business are numerous including flexibility, disaster recovery, automatic updates and cost savings as well as increased collaboration for a displaced workforce.

While more businesses are harnessing the power of cloud application solutions, many remain unaware of the additional need to protect against new and increased vulnerabilities associated with transferring data to and from the cloud.

Benefits of an API approach include:

  • Comprehensive courage for both user-to-cloud and cloud-to-cloud traffic
