Cloud Security
Secure your cloud environment to protect your reputation, data and systems
Hackers will test your cloud’s security. Disappoint them by getting it right.
Your customers and employees trust you with their data. To retain that trust, you need to keep that data safe. Even when it is stored in the cloud.
Cloud providers responsibility only goes so far
Cloud providers do a good job of providing a secure physical hosting environment. They also take care of the virtualisation/abstraction layer. But everything else is likely to be your responsibility.
Protect your data and reputation
To safeguard your cloud’s security, you need to arrange security hardening, access restrictions, access logging, malware defences, web filtering, penetration testing, patching and backups.
Syntura can take care of these.

Benefits
Real-world business benefits and customer support
Slash the Risk of Embarrassing, Costly, Disruptive Attacks
Hackers and malware gangs really are out to get you. Not because you’re special, but because you’re vulnerable and that’s all they need.
Satisfy Client, Insurer and Regulator Cybersecurity Requirements
Your most important customers expect you to have good cybersecurity. Some of your insurance coverage may depend on you meeting baseline IT security standards. Regulators and credit card firms may fine you if you breach GDPR, HIPAA or PCI-DSS requirements due to hackers actions.
Avoid Data Leaks
By keeping your cloud secure, you reduce the risk of hackers leaking customer data, candid documents and plans.
Reassure Potential Clients
You’ll be able to answer tender questions about cybersecurity with details about how you keep data and systems safe.
Avoid Ransomware Extortion
Cloud security makes it harder for ransomware gangs to compromise your servers, steal data and hold it to ransom.
FAQs
How can you improve my organisation’s cloud security?
Look down who can access your cloud, patch the guest operating systems in a timely manner, back up your cloud’s data, log access attempts, place limits on exfiltration of sensitive data, and audit security settings.
Doesn’t our cloud provider take care of security?
No. It looks after the hardware, and probably the virtualisation/abstraction layer. Everything else is your responsibility, including security hardening, access control, guest OS patching, anti-malware measures, intrusion prevention and backups.
Surely, we are not a target?
You are already a target. Check your internet-connected server and firewall logs if you don’t believe us. It’s not that you’re special, it’s that hackers aren’t that picky.
Why should we trust Syntura to secure our cloud?
We have a deep understanding of cloud and network security as an ISO 27001 certified cloud operator and connectivity supplier to many government bodies. We’re also a partner of Fortinet, a top network security vendor. Our own systems are subject to regular penetration tests by third parties.
