Hybrid Cloud - IT Security

The challenge of delivering a secure Hybrid IT environment

Hybrid Cloud is the IT model of the future, blending existing legacy systems with Cloud based services, to deliver increased flexibility, agility and significant cost efficiencies. However, despite the clear business benefits this model offers, concerns over Cloud security continue to hold some organisations back from switching to a Hybrid model.

The security challenge is to shift from securing a purely in-house data and infrastructure, to securing data across an integrated legacy and cloud environment.

Many of the security risks associated with Hybrid Cloud, occur as the result of poor service integration, where Cloud services and on-premises IT have not been effectively joined. Potential risk areas include;

Data aggregation across in-house systems and cloud services.
Opening up existing legacy applications to deliver data through public or open Application Programming Interfaces (APIs).
