Security News > 2020 > March > While many migrate security tools to the cloud, concerns remain

While many companies are beginning to migrate security tools to the cloud, a significant number have concerns, a survey by Exabeam reveals.

Typically, organizations migrate security tools to the cloud to minimize the resources and overhead associated with owning and maintaining on-premises equipment and software.

When asked what concerns they have about moving security tools to the cloud, data privacy remains high on the list, with unauthorized access, server outages, integration with other security tools, and data sovereignty also being raised.

Around a third said they did not know what concerns their organization has about moving security tools to the cloud.

Despite about a third of respondents saying they consider it to be too difficult or too risky to migrate security tools to the cloud, nearly half said their preference is to migrate legacy products to the cloud rather than replace legacy on-premise products with new cloud-native security tools.
