Assess your security requirements
Security cannot be an afterthought when it comes
to cloud migration. Despite increasing cyberattacks
targeting data in the cloud, 83% of businesses are still
failing to encrypt half of the sensitive data they store in
the cloud.³
But with 40% of organizations suffering a cloud-based data breach in
2021, you can't afford to cut corners on security.
One challenge facing IT teams is the complexity of cloud security. 46%
of organizations say managing privacy and data protection in the cloud
is more complex than on-premises solutions.

And with pressure to
quickly adopt cloud computing, security best practices are often swept
aside.
Thankfully, security breaches are largely preventable, but a strong
cloud security posture starts before you begin your migration. Review
your current security mechanisms and identify your cloud security
requirements. This should include identity and access management,
compliance, disaster recovery and endpoint security requirements.
