Future Cloud is safe, agile and efficient

Symantec vouches for safer cloud

Symantec Corp. announced its vision for safe, agile
and efficient clouds. In five years, companies will
operate in a converged IT world of cloud, virtualisation
and mobile computing where clouds are safe. IT
organizations will have better visibility, control and
compliance across their private and public clouds.
To get there, Symantec extends its security, data
storage and information management expertise to help
companies transition to safe clouds of the future.
Today, the cloud landscape is rapidly changing. A
survey conducted by Symantec showed that between
public, private and hybrid deployments, 23 per cent
of business information globally is being stored in the
cloud. Advanced cyber attacks by governments and
crime syndicates will likely target highly profitable
data centers and high profile clouds. In the face of these
new challenges, organisations of all sizes will need a
rigorous cloud approach and industry leading partners
to help navigate through the cloud complexities.
Symantec understands what companies need and will
help them successfully migrate into safe clouds.

The proliferation of cloud-based applications and
services will continue to grow as information
explodes across IT networks, public and private
clouds, mobile devices and other connected
endpoints. Companies are shifting to hybrid cloud
environments operating in public and private
clouds, either hosted on premise or off premise.
The cloud complexities increase specifically
around protection, data management and control.
Clouds of the future will be safe, agile and
efficient
With safe clouds, companies will transition
confidential customer and sensitive business
information to the clouds. They will realise the full
cloud benefits of increased security, data control
and availability while users experience greater
productivity and mobile-to-cloud accessibility. In
contrast, clouds will deliver improved scalability,
affordability and compliance as compared to
traditional data centers.
Clouds will be the new norm
IT will build new clouds and infrastructures
from the ground up. Important workloads will
shift from on premise to off premise clouds.
Companies will reap cloud benefits, cost savings
and advanced protection as new business models,
new use of technologies and new ways to interact
with information become available. As cloud
computing advances, a need arises for specialised
skills, policies and architectures. Companies
will experience new demands around IT risk
and compliance, governance, data privacy and
regulatory requirements.
Symantecs Role in the New Cloud
To achieve this safe clouds environment, the IT
industry needs to enforce rigorous cloud strategies
around the protection of policy, information, people and
infrastructures. Symantecs comprehensive portfolio
provides companies of all sizes a variety of cloud
solutions to address their specific needs and current IT
environments.
