CYBER SECURITY AND DATA CENTER CONSOLIDATION.

 

Business leaders are laying out clear mandates for their IT departments as they navigate the current economy. IT infrastructure has to consolidate to save energy costs, and it has to host more applications, share resources across different departments, and become more secure.

 

Chief information officers (CIOs) translate these requirements into fewer data centers and consolidated server, networking, and storage resources that can host multiple applications shared by diverse departments. They want IT to operate as a service, like large public service providers.

 

Cyber security is more than a collection of virus protection programs. It’s an evolving system of processes, software, and techniques that defend your company from unauthorized data usage. Data breaches, and even a potential data leak, are bad for business and productivity. Customers lose faith in companies when they think their data isn’t secure, and network vulnerabilities can play havoc with your internal business systems.
