Moving to the Cloud

You must have noticed how many businesses are moving to the cloud. Line any other technology, migrating to the cloud also requires compliance, effective day-to-day management, security, etc. As many companies are hard-pressed while they simply manage their necessary help-desk activities, dealing with a cloud migration can be an extra burden on the company’s shoulders.

Changing the Landscape of Cybersecurity

Have you ever thought about the critical importance of cybersecurity for your business? Cyber-attacks rank in the second place after fiscal crises that pose a potential global risk. We have witnessed a peak of cyber-attacks during the recent pandemic, which is more likely to continue till the coming years. As businesses are becoming digital, they have more to worry about, especially about cyber-attacks’ potential threat. Cyber-criminals are always on the lookout for security gaps, especially in technological work places.

The rapid adaptation of cloud computing has put the systems of many businesses in the public cloud. For businesses, this might potentially decrease their operational costs and increase brand awareness. However, it also means that their large amount of data can find its way to the public cloud for businesses. In case you wonder, all it takes is one tiny misconfigured setting, and the business data can be encrypted by ransomware. Subsequently, it can get corrupted, damaged, and deleted.

With managed IT services, you can ensure your business infrastructure’s safety and protection as you move it to the cloud. As a business owner, you should know that your business data and assets’ security needs to be on the top place of your list of priorities.

Rise of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and ML (Machine Learning)

AI and ML are widely recognized as useful tools for the detection of malicious programs. Now, machines are effectively trained through human inputs along with trial-and-error for the recognition of potential threats. With that said, you should also know that not all AI and ML are for humanity’s greater good. Cybercriminals know how to use ML and AI for their purposes, which has posed a severe challenge to cybersecurity. It is essential to know that with ML and AI’s evolution, hackers and cyber-criminals are also evolving. With the consistent efforts of managed IT service providers, you will always stay one step ahead of cybercriminals’ malicious games.

Techniques of Authentication

We know that passwords are always on the line of defense to protect accounts and other IT assets. Lately, poor passwords have caused loads of data breaches. Managed IT services, such as MFA (multi-factor authentication), provides an additional layer of protection to your apps, accounts, and other digital assets. MFA demands the use of more than one authentication method for the processing and confirmation of one’s identity before they get access to an account or device. The various verification methods include but are not confined to biometric authentication, OTP (one-time-password), face recognition, etc.
