Cloud computing is a general concept that incorporates software-as-a-service (SaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS), infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) and other recent well-known technology trends in which the common theme is reliance on the Internet for satisfying the computing needs of the users.  

This channel features presentations by thought leaders who cover the key topic areas in this increasingly important field.

They hybrid clouds have been the norm for a long time now. We have spent a long time applying consistent tooling across our various clouds but protecting them is still a big challenge. We use public clouds, private clouds and SaaS solutions and yet we don’t have a consistent approach to protecting the data. What happens if your SaaS provider fails? How do you get your data back? When did you last check this?

How well are the cloud systems protected? Where is the demarcation line? Is your business aware of the risks it might be taking? And that’s even before we find those SaaS environments that were bought on a credit card without IT's knowledge.

Securing and protecting these environments is a huge challenge so join this webinar to get a strong checklist of areas to consider and approaches you can take that will protect you, your organisation and the data you own.
