So why hasn't everyone jumped wholeheartedly into the cloud yet? Security remains a top concern. However, by analyzing and understanding the content before it is migrated, you can reduce the risk of access to sensitive content by tagging and classifying it appropriately as well as enjoy the added benefit of reducing the amount of content that would need to be migrated based on its content value. As we've worked with public sector agencies contemplating moving some (or all) of their data to the cloud, we've worked with them to answer the following questions:
- What content is considered appropriate to move to the cloud?
- What should be kept on-premises due to regulatory requirements?
- What is our policy regarding sensitive information and where that content is stored?
- How do we monitor and enforce compliance of our sensitive information?
