Cloud security is demonized and traditional network security is no different

In recent years, there has been a data center or cloud host downtime events in China and abroad, causing a certain loss to enterprises and users. The issue of cloud security has again been put on the table, attracting people's attention. In an interview with Youtao, a member of China's cloud computing Experts committee, the network said that cloud security is not fundamentally different from traditional network security.

Youtao from doing ERP practice analysis that, since the beginning of the information has security problems, including data, IDC, network and other aspects of consideration, it can be said that security is a very old topic. Now, although entered the era of cloud computing, but the means of threats to security has not changed, still through Trojans, viruses and passwords to decipher several ways to threaten the security of users. Security vendors are also using previous solutions and firewalls to address these threats, so at least for now, cloud security is not fundamentally different from traditional network security.

Some insiders think cloud security is a false proposition, youtao that this is too radical, but there are certain reasons. Security is always relative and there is no absolute security. It's like an airplane is the safest way to travel, but there are accidents. Now the concept of cloud computing is very hot, and security vendors are happy to combine the current Internet environment with their own products and the cloud. However, from the current development, the vast majority of security solutions, still follow the traditional mature scheme. At present only the cloud killing mode and cloud computing have a certain connection, but also did not make full use of cloud computing resources.

The recent rapid transit network to understand that China's electronic software laboratory will launch a security PAAs platform, Youtao said that there are authoritative agencies in the security efforts are very good things. The purpose of innovation through PAAs is to provide innovative ways of cooperation for our customers. Just like the customer ate a long time of steamed bread, now give him a steamed fried a twist, make some changes. But whether these changes will ultimately be successful or not depends on the customer's approval.

The era of networking and cloud computing has made business owners aware of the importance of security, and the focus is shifting to data. Youtao points out that today's customers are more concerned with data security and data control rights. When users understand their real needs, businesses and media are required to do some work to help customers redefine security correctly. Youtao believes that safety manufacturers should actively cooperate with cloud application enterprises to create a good ecological environment.
