Cloud Benefits
Good advice, Security tops the list of concerns for organization looking to adopt the cloud in any form, encryption is the best method to ensure security and privacy of data, however other methods such as regulating access and effectively managing vendors can also be employed to protect assets on the cloud. I work with McGladrey here's how you will benefit with our cloud expertise. bit.ly/mcgldrycloud

Safe Haven in the Cloud
John Pescatore hit the nail on the head when he said that the obvious solution is for IT to give users a way to put content in a safe place so it can be accessed from anywhere at any time.

This problem isn't going to go away
Although it's true, IT can do a lot to miniimize shadow IT, it is going to have a great deal of difficulty eradicating it. More and more services are going to become available in the cloud that computer literate end users will be able to take advantage of, with or without IT's knowledge. And they will continue to pose security risks.

The 10 Most Impactful Types of Vulnerabilities for Enterprises Today
Managing system vulnerabilities is one of the old est - and most frustrating - security challenges that enterprise defenders face. Every software application and hardware device ships with intrinsic flaws - flaws that, if critical enough, attackers can exploit from anywhere in the world. It's crucial that defenders take stock of what areas of the tech stack have the most emerging, and critical, vulnerabilities they must manage. It's not just zero day vulnerabilities. Consider that CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog lists vulnerabilitlies in widely used applications that are "actively exploited," and most of them are flaws that were discovered several years ago and have been fixed. There are also emerging vulnerabilities in 5G networks, cloud infrastructure, Edge applications, and firmwares to consider.
