HP: Cloud data Center is a hacker's "target"

According to foreign http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/31646.html "> Media reports, Hewlett-Packard said that the cloud is like a larger target for hackers than traditional data center servers.

The company's answer, "Yes, many of the computational resources are easy to get" was that the company was asked whether the cloud's deployment was vulnerable to an intrusion at a cloud-safety seminar, and that the cloud's deployment was like "target" in the data center.

HP is actively promoting the concept of data center integration rather than having many insecure data centers. HP says data centers will suffer more attacks, but more programs will protect users ' data. HP points out that the data centers will have more protection if the company concentrates all resources on the same platform.

The problem is that all data consolidation, while allowing companies to centralize protection and resources on a single platform, is more obvious if there is a security breach, which is tantamount to full exposure. Hewlett-Packard says security must be combined with proactive prevention and ex post remedies, but this is certainly not reassuring because of the recent High-profile security incidents.

HP's emphasis is on building highly defensive "high quality" data centers, but there is no denying the risk of putting eggs in the same basket. Hewlett-Packard, while claiming that its data center would be paired with each other, is obviously just doubling the area of attack.
