CLOUD SECURITY INDIAN CIOS WILL BE AWAKE AT NIGHT


While cyber attacks have grown globally, CISOs have become the top concern for cloud security in India, a new Symantec survey revealed. Covering 1,100 CISOs across 11 global markets, the survey on the state of enterprise data security revealed that CISOs in India are particularly concerned about their ability to respond quickly to attacks. With more reliance on the clouds in the cloud, CISOs are more difficult to save sensitive company data. "To bolster information security, 93 per cent of Indian CISOs plan to increase spending on IT staff security training this year. New IT employees will undergo 20 hours of security training during their onboarding process," the survey showed. Almost all Indian CISOs believe that ensuring Cloud applications meet compliance regulations is one of the most stressful aspects of their job. "The need for data security, compliance and residency is also driving Indian CISOs to look for encryption and/or tokenisation solutions to support their Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) initiatives," the survey showed. Despite such measures, security challenges remain. Cyber-criminal use flaws in legitimate operating systems, tools and Cloud services to compromise networks. "Speaking of Cloud Security creates a complicated functionality and allows Indian CISOs to get the full advantage of the cloud. This approach protects their data safely and in the age that runs with this data," the Symantec survey said.
