Data Centres are essential to the daily activities of all businesses as they facilitate the storing, processing and sharing of sensitive data and applications that are critical for business operations and continuity.
System users, data owners and end users, be it employees or customers have become increasingly demanding, requiring access to data and services without delay, putting pressure on organisations to be faster and more agile than ever before.
Without providing access to data, processes and applications, organisations can easily grind to a halt.
Data centres are a prime target for cyber attacks
Whilst a data centre security breach can provide access to sensitive data, exposing systems and applications to attackers gives hackers the ability to configure system settings which can be even more detrimental to the business, its employees and customers.
A Hybrid Approach to Data Centres
Assets and applications are now typically stored and accessed via data centres in the cloud – both public and private – in some instances assets are still stored in physical data centres.
Many businesses are taking a hybrid path, mixing a combination of both cloud and traditional approaches, for a more tailored, flexible, agile, dynamic and cost effective data centre solution.
Implementing cyber security solutions to protect a hybrid data centre infrastructure can therefore be extremely complex, and totally unique as ‘one size’ does not fit ‘all’.
