Another company Kaspersky Lab has launched a new security private cloud that boasts of offering real – time updates on threats to users without sending company information to public cloud. In a press release Nikita Shvetsov, CTO at Kaspersky Lab said “In large companies and in state organizations, there are typically very strict information security policies in place regulating inbound and outgoing data traffic,” said Kaspersky CTO Nikita Shvetsov in a press release. “However, in light of an ever-growing number of cyber-threats, security solutions work most efficiently only when they maintain a continuous data exchange with a cloud, which contains the most recent threat data.”
