Cloud Computing Security Assessment

Cloud Computing offers many potential benefits to organizations wishing to reduce application, operational, and infrastructure costs through optimized and efficient computing. Cloud computing can also enhance system-wide collaboration, agility, scaling, and availability. However, moving to the cloud is not without inherent risks.

Your organization's threat profile depends on your selection of cloud computing model - SaaS (Software as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), or IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) - along with your choice of public vs. private deployment, internal vs. external hosting, etc.

Whether you have already completed a cloud computing deployment or if you are just beginning the evaluation process, it is imperative that you understand your potential exposure points for sensitive information and operations in order to minimize risk and ensure that your organization does not have to compromise security for performance.

A Cloud Computing Security Assessment (CCSA) from infoLock Technologies allows your organization to take a risk-management approach to your cloud computing deployment by focusing on the following key indicators:

+ Identification and valuation of assets

+ Development of risk treatment plans

+ Identification and analysis of threats and vulnerabilities

+ Analysis of the likelihood of security events or scenarios

+ Management-approved risk acceptance levels and criteria
