Cloud Security Managed Services

Dependable Cloud Security Solutions

To stay competitive, businesses are increasingly turning to cloud technology for its flexibility, speed, and reliability.

But just as more organizations have turned their attentions to this new frontier, they’re also facing new risks.

Data loss, poorly configured access management, and data breaches are all potential security threats to your systems. Attacks on your systems can lead to lost productivity and downtime. A lack of good security protocols could also pose compliance or regulatory challenges.

And if cyberattacks were to succeed in accessing your systems and data, it could be damaging both to your business and reputation.

None of that should dissuade you from migrating to the cloud. It should make you pause to consider the importance of a dependable cloud security solution. Here’s how The Vital Geek can help.

What Is Cloud Security Service?

Cloud computing systems require their own set of security measures, which work together to not only protect your company’s data but to maintain regulatory compliance. These measures consist of an organization’s procedures and policies, as well as the controls and technology that dictate how cloud systems are accessed, how users are authenticated, and how information is secured.

As a managed IT service provider, The Vital Geek offers these kinds of security services more efficiently and at a lower cost than an in-house IT team could provide.

Managed Cloud Security Service Benefits

From small businesses to enterprise-level organizations, companies of all sizes enjoy big advantages when they hire a managed services provider to oversee their cloud security. By outsourcing these services you’ll save money — while still enjoying 24/7 protection.

Here are six benefits to working with a managed service provider.

Reliable Automation

Automation reduces the chance for error by eliminating manual tasks. Once your system is configured, it will reliably run according to your security protocols.

Improved Efficiency

As your organization scales, an in-house IT team can quickly be overwhelmed by the demands of cloud security. Outsourcing these services allows you to perform at maximum efficiency.

Real-Time Threat Detection

Managed security services mean that your data is under 24/7 protection. Threats are identified and dealt with in real-time, keeping your sensitive information secure.

Proactive Cyberdefense

With managed security services, you benefit from proactive cyberdefense methods based on the most up-to-date technology and best practices.

Lower IT Costs

Hiring and retaining skilled IT workers who understand cloud security can get expensive. Outsourcing these services to a managed services provider is a great way to reduce your IT costs.

More Focus on Growth

When you delegate your cloud security to a trusted provider, it leaves more time for your IT team to focus on the strategic projects that grow your business.

How Does Cloud Security Managed Services Work?

Cloud technology has come a long way. These days, you can generally trust that your cloud provider is offering you a very secure environment.

Unfortunately, they can’t protect your data when it leaves the cloud to interact with your other systems.

That where cloud security managed services come in to help fill the gap. These services function by focusing on four key dimensions:

1.Human Error

Cloud security works to remove as much potential for human error as possible through automation and other digital tools.

2.Digital Protection

Data storage and networks are safeguarded against cyberattackers seeking to steal information from your systems.

3.Impact Mitigation

When an incident does happen, cloud security helps ensure the impact on your systems is minimal.

4.Data Recovery

If data is lost, either through human error or a malicious attack, cloud backup and recovery systems are in place to restore it.

With those four dimensions in mind, let’s look at some more specific examples.
