Why the FUD?
What’s with all the FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) circulating on cloud, fueling unrealistic fears? The cloud is a deployment choice that deserves the same risk management procedures you put in place for any other platform. Companies are making good use of the cloud by starting small and building on its success–initial deployments focus on less critical data and enable businesses to enjoy the benefits without the fear. Transparency from cloud providers will allow them to demonstrate the effectiveness of their controls and show how they are verified, helping build trust and partnerships. A trusted cloud provider will help map solutions to business requirements that can lead to resource savings, scalability, profitability, and a more efficient operating environment.
