Computacenter Research Highlights the Danger of Consumer Cloud
Storage Products
LONDON--(Marketwire - November 19, 2012) - Consumer Cloud
Storage has started to change how we procure and use IT; it is not
a 'one size fits all' solution, says Computacenter.
New research shows that 84% of employees are accessing and
sharing company data using Consumer Cloud solutions like Dropbox
and SkyDrive. The moment a file is moved into Dropbox or SkyDrive
it's outside the control of the organisation that owns it. These
Consumer Cloud products and services, sometimes referred to as
'stealth cloud' or 'shadow IT,' are edging their way into the
corporate mainstream and the impact on business IT management could
be disastrous.
Computacenter conducted research amongst 150 IT decision makers
and the findings highlight the risks and the need for action,
offers pointers as to what can be done and shows how important the
issue of the Consumer Cloud really is.
The research was led by Cloud Practice Leader, Paul Casey, who
said, "It's imperative that businesses address this problem now.
It's clear that everyone knows the risks of consumer cloud
products, but until the correct solutions are put in place,
employees will continue to use them whatever the consequences."
56% of the IT decision makers surveyed say that they're worried
that files and data could be accessed by the wrong people, or that
the usage of Cloud services could lead to compliance breaches.
According to Information Week, the number of companies
monitoring Cloud performance rose from 63% to 76% between 2011 and
2012.
