Security in the cloud? You bet!

Security is a critical element when it comes to cloud migration, particularly for medium-sized companies. Nonetheless, cloud providers devote substantial resources to safeguarding their data centres. This includes running Security Operations Centres (SOCs) and continuously monitoring their infrastructure. Security is fundamental to their operations, starting from physical access to network security, encryption, and DDoS attack prevention measures. At Zircoo, we take cloud security seriously, which is why we have included a sophisticated security framework with our Managed Cloud Services to enhance and fortify the already high level of primary security measures implemented by the cloud providers.

  • Implementation of stringent rules for identity and access management, along with robust network security enforced by a firewall, both internally within the cloud environment and externally against external threats.
  • Utilization of AWS Guard Duty alongside the highly-regarded self-verifying Ephemeral Firewall.
  • Our dedicated Zircoo SIEM team diligently analyzes log files and shares insights with customer-tailored SIEM solutions.

FAQ: Managed Cloud Services

Cloud computing delivers IT infrastructure via the internet, letting users access systems they need without installing software. NIST identifies four delivery models: Public, Private, Hybrid, and Community Cloud.

Cloud Services provide IT resources for businesses. These resources fall into three categories: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). IaaS offers cloud-based servers, storage, and networking. PaaS enables users to develop, manage, and distribute their own apps from a cloud-based platform. With SaaS, software is delivered as a cloud-based solution by the software provider. Managed Cloud Services, like those provided by Zircoo, offer cloud expertise for the operation, maintenance, availability, and security of the cloud solution.
