It points\u00a0out the added shadow IT risk, but that it\u2019s clear that cloud providers have on the whole taken large strides towards making their services more secure. The firm said the number of cloud service providers investing in key security capabilities more than doubled in 2014: 1,082 (11 per cent of all services) encrypt data at rest versus 470 in Q4 2013; 1,459 (17 per cent) offer multi-factor authentication compared with 705 in Q4 2013; and 533 (5 per cent) hold ISO 27001 certification compared with 188 in Q4 2013.<\/p>\n

The onus therefore, is very much on cloud providers to reassure users that their data and businesses are safe in the cloud and these latest figures underline the efforts that are being made to achieve this.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
