Cloud Computing Top Business Risk

(from Gartner) Cloud-managed service providers are predicted to triple by 2020, as they become increasingly integral to business processes. However, business executives are concerned about risks of unauthorized access to sensitive or restricted information and of disruptions in cloud providers' services that will impact client business. In fact, cloud computing was ranked as the top emerging risk in a recent survey, above GDPR and a cyber breach. Organizations should also watch out for social engineering, when cyber criminals assume the identity of a key employee for fraudulent purposes.
