Live Webinar From CloudSwitch on Securing the Public Cloud for the Enterprise
Making the Public Cloud Work Like a Private Cloud
Burlington, Mass. — April 28, 2010 — CloudSwitch, Inc. today announced a live webinar on May 11, 2010 featuring guest speaker David Mortman, Director of Operations and Security at C3 and former CISO at Siebel Systems along with Shawn Henry, Vice President of Engineering at CloudSwitch.
Many companies would like to take advantage of cloud computing, but concerns about possible security breaches and loss of data hold them back. For cloud computing to gain traction in the enterprise, IT and security executives need to be certain that their company’s applications and data are safe and under IT’s control.
In the live presentation, David Mortman will explore concerns with cloud security including loss of control and monitoring, lack of auditing and enterprise-grade encryption, as well as the perceived lack of enterprise-grade intrusion detection, disaster recovery and compliance. This will be followed by an overview of how enterprises are starting to embrace the cloud and ensuring that cloud-based resources can run under full enterprise control using CloudSwitch software. Real enterprise use cases will be presented, followed by a Q&A session with the speakers.
