Cloud security and personal data

In 2018 50% of companies with more than a thousand employees will use cloud security service. These forecasts are made analytical, Gartner.

By 2020, 95 percent of cloud security failures will occur on the client's fault. Security problems are the most common reason for not using public cloud services. However, only a small percentage of security incidents in enterprises using cloud services, has been associated with vulnerabilities that have arisen through the fault of the provider. This does not mean that organizations should assume that all cloud services are safe.

However, the growing recognition of the company responsible for the proper use of public clouds is reflected in the growing market for cloud services monitoring facilities. By 2018, 50 percent of businesses with more than 1000 users will use cloud security services to monitor and control the use of SaaS and other forms of public clouds.

"According to Gartner, in 2020, virtual personal assistants will be involved in 40% of mobile operations. Rather than use the application directly, we will rely on virtual personal assistants that will anticipate our needs, build trust and to act independently on our behalf, - the director of the Department of Innovation and Intellectual Property of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine Elena Minich. - With this in mind, we can say that within 5 years, the personal data will be used wherever possible. "

Experts note that large cloud providers can now offer considerable security of personal data, because their services are subject to international standardization, and are subject to international law in the field of personal data. Therefore, the business can successfully implement their data protection policies using cloud services.

Participants in their speeches pointed out that with the growing number of Internet-connected devices and cloud-based technologies, and growing amount of personal data that these devices and technologies used.
