Next-generation cloud security to give you peace of mind

When it comes to cloud deployment, security is a top concern for all involved. Today, there are more data and software security threats than ever. From data breaches and information leaks to accidental deletion, the risk of critical and private information being leaked or lost is very real. It is not always big corporations and government servers being hacked, either. It can happen to anyone.

Cloud software has helped propel the world forward in innumerable ways. Companies are no longer burdened with running their own data centers. No more being shackled to on-premise servers and locally hosted solutions. By providing centralized, web-enabled access to core systems and data, business and collaboration can be conducted from nearly any place, any time. These rewards, however, also come with added risks. Companies that store vital information in the cloud must protect it properly.

Manufacturing data in particular is especially valuable to hackers. Cloud-based enterprise Resource planning systems centralize, process, and generate an enormous amount of data from across the entire enterprise. Everything from proprietary manufacturing plans to financial account data to personal information is used by ERP and stored in the cloud. With so much valuable data in ERP, manufacturers must pay special attention to their solution's security features.
