Addressing security in a cloud-enabled organization
The adoption of cloud computing is rapidly gathering momentum, as more companies use this technology to store data and access applications online. However as cloud computing becomes more mainstream, security concerns are being raised.
A recent Robert Half survey of 150 CIOs and CTOs in Asia Pacific revealed that security was the most prevalent concern among the respondents when migrating their technology functions to the cloud.
In fact 44% of those surveyed in Hong Kong were concerned most about security. Other concerns included data integrity (26%), lack of internal knowledge on cloud computing (18%) and migration cost (8%).
