21% of companies worldwide prefer Hybrid Cloud Solutions: says Kaspersky
To protect computers and other devices without the support of local security tools, 21% of organizations throughout the world have implemented hybrid cloud solutions. This has helped them to incorporate anti-malware technologies against threat and simultaneously interact with a cloud service. These are the results of a study conducted by Kaspersky Lab in collaboration with B2B International researchers.
The study has revealed that new threats are emerging too fast for even regular updates to stay one step ahead. That is why security solution developers are working on combining proactive and cloud technologies. There are further security solutions based only on cloud technologies, but these cannot provide reliable protection against complex threats, including zero-days. And such solutions cannot work efficiently without a stable Internet connection.
According to a B2B International survey in November 2012, only 21% of the companies surveyed use them. Most respondents (51%) prefer local solutions with no cloud assistance, and another 20% choose cloud security tools. The hybrid solutions are more popular in large enterprises – 29% surveyed corporations of this size use hybrid security. However, these solutions remain unpopular among other companies.
