Business continuity and cloud computing
Cloud computing is a well-known phrase that describes a (apparently easy and risk free) new way of storing data by using equipment belonging to others. The basic feature of this is that your data leaves your control and is stored on servers belonging to third parties.
There are numerous benefits to cloud computing. However, there are many downsides as well. The latter do not make cloud computing a bad thing but it does mean that the potential risks have to be analysed and understood.
There is a brilliant piece which talks in more detail and which will save space in this blog. It is written by Jim Symington of Chiltern Business Computing. Northwood Risk Management is delighted to provide a link so that the full piece can be accessed
