There’s one cloud solution that can reliably help you make business easy

We’ve released an eBook titled “The Financial Leader’s Monthly Action Plan.” Each month, we are posting excerpts here on our blogFor the month of August, the theme is “Secure your data in the cloud.” 

On-premise servers and private clouds are prime targets for malicious actors deploying ransomware. These attacks not only result in hefty ransom payments but also lead to project downtime, invoicing delays, and lost productivity. The financial and operational impact can be devastating. 

Additionally, complying with regulations like CMMC and FedRAMP can be complex, especially regarding physical access controls. With on-premises solutions, achieving these standards requires significant investments in infrastructure and security expertise. A public cloud simplifies compliance by offering pre-built controls and audit trails.
