The Future of Cloud Technology

In a world dominated by the digital world, everything seems to be just a click away. Our dependence on digital media has grown manifolds in the past couple of decades. But this dependency has also given birth to many notorious activities, and one of such activity is DDos attack. What is a DDoS attack? DDoS attack or distributed denial of service attack is making it impossible to deliver the service to its end customers. In this kind of attack access to almost everything including s devices, servers, applications, services, networks, etc. is prevented. The difference between DoS attack and DDoS attack is that in DoS attack malicious data or requests are sent from one system whereas in a DDoS attack it can be sent from multiple systems. Denial of service attack today Multiple requests for data are masked to the system to initiate this attack. It could be done by either extensive request to the webserver to serve a page so that it ultimately crashes because of high demand. The ...

Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks can cripple an organization, a network or even an entire country. DDoS attacks make up a considerable percentage of security threats, and recent attacks have been larger and more complex than ever. What is ddos attacking ? While there are some things security teams can do to lessen the impact of DDoS attacks, the growing sophistication of such attacks has sparked strong growth in the market for DDoS solutions. Research firm IDC expects the DDoS prevention market to grow 20 percent each year through 2021. The vendors listed here scored well in the Forrester DDoS Wave or the Quadrant Knowledge Solutions DDoS report – or both. In addition to handling traditional DDoS attacks, they incorporate cloud, mobile and IoT features. Each vendor summary links to a detailed analysis, including target markets and use cases, features, metrics, intelligence, use of agents, security certifications, product delivery (cloud, software or hardware) and pri...

IBM announced on November 20 Cloud Pak for Security, presenting innovations that are a first in the industry to connect with any security tool, cloud or locally installed system (on-premise), without moving data from its original source.  The new platform includes open technology to detect threats, automation capabilities to help accelerate the response to cybersecurity attacks and the ability to run in any environment. Cloud Pak for Security is the first platform in the industry based on open technologies that can search and translate security data from a variety of sources, gathering critical information from the company's entire multi-cloud IT environment.  The platform is extensible, so additional tools and applications can be added over time. In a statement, IBM notes that as companies move forward in cloud adoption, applications and data extend across multiple public and private clouds, as well as on-premise resources.  Attempts to protect this fragmented IT en...

In 2009, consulting firm  Delloite  , curious about the trends that the beginning of  digital transformation  was causing in large companies and different sectors of the economy, created a study to survey the digital technologies employed at the time. Ten years later, the booming technologies in 2009 became obsolete  .  Regarding the maturity of  digital transformation  ,  Deloitte  says: “  To stay ahead of the market, organizations must work methodically to envision new innovations and possibilities, set their ambitions for the future and go beyond the digital frontier.” Sounds like a difficult task, doesn't it?  But not so much.  Many previous trends remain important today, have only been refined and continue to evolve.  These include analytics and  cloud computing  , for example. The use of  artificial intelligence  remains paramount, but it is now necessary to step in and completely re-...
