The year 2020 was a tough one for many industries, most of which incurred losses caused by lockdowns. However, in between the noises, there appear to be some beneficiaries. Cloud computing, for example, took center stage as the world shifted towards digital. The pandemic might have been the last straw that will see a permanent move to digitization and the sign of the new age of cloud computing occasioned by the work-from-home regime, driving a sudden rise in individual demand.

Everywhere you go these days, you are likely to meet people talking about “the cloud.” This term seems to be more widely used in corporate settings now more than ever. Maybe it is all because of its impact on organizations and the potential to change the business environment. As you might have heard or read, AI provides better storage, enhances data security, flexibility, and collaboration, and improves workflows for all organizations, both small and large. This is why you should consider implementing cloud in your company regardless of the size.

In the age of cloud computing, bad actors can access many targets than ever. They can also access many tools that they can use in their activities more than ever before. As such, security in this age is a priority. Cloud Security Report 2020 indicates that the security challenges encountered in the cloud include misconfiguration, unauthorized access, insecure interfaces and account hijacking. The attacks on cloud platforms vary based on different aspects from mundane to new sophisticated attacks that are conducted using powerful tools.
