The concept of “cloud” has become more of a norm for companies and organizations worldwide. Most now use cloud service providers (CSPs) for some part of their business, and cloud has grown from simply being an IT concern to a C-level concern. Debate continues over the varieties of cloud available, such as on-premise, hybrid, public and private, and it is an industry that according to Global Industry Analysts, Inc., will reach over $127 billion by the end of the year. 

Since so much data is now being stored on cloud servers, CSPs must be vigilant and proactive to ensure their clients’ vital digital property is never compromised, infected, or held for ransom.
