Organizations that are trying to choose a cloud data security solution should look for the product whose features will secure them most from harm. Features that they should look for include:




  • Data encryption. Data encryption is a crucial security capability in a world where bad actors attempt to steal people’s data. This keeps unauthorized individuals from reading and accessing confidential data. Businesses should find a product that encrypts their data both in storage and while it is being moved.



  • Role-based access management. Administrators should be able to determine who has access to what parts of their system. This feature enables them to ensure that only those people for whom access is necessary will be able to enter and work in particular portions of their network.



  • Centralized visibility and management. Centralized visibility and management dashboards empower users to see every portion of their system so that nothing escapes their notice. Once they can see what is going on in their network, administrators should be able to manage it from one place. Instead of rushing from dashboard to dashboard, a simple management system should enable them to use their visibility effectively.



  • Security automation. Solutions whose operations run without the need for human intervention are more secure than those that rely on constant human participation. Automation removes the possibility of human error and can spot a greater number of threats than classic systems ever could.
