Benefits of using Amazon Web Services (AWS) for Cloud Projects
Companies always fear that any data uploaded online is not safe; hence, they opt to apply cloud security to all their cloud deployments. Thanks to some software advancements, Amazon Web Services (AWS) is able to help enterprises secure their cloud projects. In this blog, we will look at some amazing reasons why using AWS is beneficial for the organizations.
Security is a major concern for any business when implementing cloud projects. It allows companies to understand the risks involved and measures to mitigate the risks. The cloud security objectives include confidentiality, integrity, availability, authenticity, accountability, liability and privacy.
Here are some risks related to cloud security that every company faces:
- Loss of Intellectual Property: Companies store confidential information on online databases. Hence, when a cloud service is breached, cybercriminals tend to gain access over sensitive information leading to the loss of intellectual property. There is a risk in maintaining ownership of company data.
- Compliance Violations and Regulatory Actions: Companies operate some kind of regulatory control on their sensitive information. They need to know who has access to what and what is being protected.
- Losing Control over end-user Actions: When companies do not have control over the access permissions of their employees, the employees are able to misuse the company information present online. This is a very common risk faced by companies today.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is known to have provided flexibility, scalability, and reliability to its customers since several decades now. However, while companies implement the solutions, they also have security concerns. AWS allows companies to understand the risks involved and provides measures to mitigate the risks. There are several reasons for companies to opt for AWS as a solution for data security and for managing governance, risk and compliance (GRC) related issues.
