Evolving Solutions in a Connected World
From video surveillance to facility and system access, modern solutions, including cloud solutions and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, are reshaping organizational security. However, navigating the landscape filled with various cyber threats is critical to find the right solution for your facility.
Cloud vs. Traditional Security
The old days’ simple keys have given way to more complex security measures, including cybersecurity and data protection. Today, traditional security often entails a local, on-premises solution encompassing video surveillance, physical security, and facility access, while cloud security brings powerful, scalable tools to both physical and IT security realms.
Cloud Pros:
- Better Equipped: Cloud-based tools, like AWS and Microsoft Azure, offer robust cybersecurity and network security backed by substantial resources, often surpassing what local providers can offer.
- Flexible Features: These services, including endpoint security and application security, scale with your organization, providing real-time updates and adaptations.
Cloud Cons:
- Less Personal: Large cloud providers might lack the personalized service you get from local firms, often resulting in less direct customer support.
On-Premises Pros:
- Physical Control: On-premises solutions allow for immediate physical and network security responses, crucial when dealing with security risks like data breaches or distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks.
- Personal Support: Local or in-house teams offer a more personal touch, understanding your specific needs, from access controls to sensitive information protection.
On-Premises Cons:
- Less Flexibility: Local providers may have limitations in adapting to rapidly evolving cyber threats and integrating with the latest IoT and cloud technologies.
Hybrid Solutions: The Best of Both Worlds
A hybrid solution blends the on-premises approach with cloud security. This mix offers the flexibility of the cloud (including real-time updates and scalability) with hands-on support and physical control of local solutions. It’s a comprehensive approach, addressing everything from endpoint security to managing security threats in complex IT systems.
