Cloud security is one of the hottest topics in the tech world; you have outsourced your CRM and data files to a cloud provider, but how confident are you that it is safe from hacking?

Financial security is essential for the hospitality industry and that is why a great deal of effort has been made in providing the necessary safety features.
One company that is at the forefront of this technology is Savvis, a CenturyLink company. It recently released Trend Micro Deep Security to its global Savvis Symphony Virtual Private Data Center (VPDC) cloud services.
The new security offering, Virtual IPS (vIPS) for VPDC, makes Savvis among the world’s first cloud providers to introduce a virtual, fully automated intrusion prevention system purpose-built for hybrid and public cloud deployments.
Benefits to Symphony VPDC customers include virtual self-tuning intrusion prevention and inline patching capabilities.
“Deep Security’s innovative virtualisation and cloud security design and feature set enable us to deliver a fully automated, virtualised intrusion prevention system that our customers can implement quickly and easily,” said Chris Richter, vice president of security products and services at Savvis.
Available in US, Asia and EMEA, Symphony VPDC is one of the industry’s first enterprise-class virtual private data centre cloud solutions with multi-tiered security, service and network profiles.
