How Secure is Your Project Data in the Cloud?

2024 has emerged as a pivotal year in cybersecurity, with some of the largest and most destructive data breaches on record. According to the Identity Theft Resource Centre, the number of corporate data breaches in the first half of 2024 surged dramatically, with more than 1 billion records compromised, marking a 490% increase over the same period last year. These incidents highlight the scale of cyber threats that businesses now face, where the risk to organizational data—and the associated reputational and financial fallout—is greater than ever.

As business becomes increasingly digital, the amount of data that needs to be protected will only continue to grow making data protection a huge part of any IT infrastructure planning. This growth, in turn, increases the risk and complexity of complying with international data security laws and regulations such as General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and US Data Privacy Laws

These laws mandate how certain data should be stored, managed, and shared, but constant monitoring of potential threats takes time, resources and effort. With your IT staff already contending with everyday maintenance and devising new technology strategy, resources are often in short supply.

Partnering with a secure Software-as-as-Service (SaaS) provider, like Deltek, relieves some of the pressure on your IT team. While your team should still utilize best practices to improve overall security such as implementing and adhering to password policies and access controls, partnering with a trusted SaaS provider will allow your team to spend more time delivering business value as your business applications and data are being securely hosted in the cloud. The SaaS approach also delivers lower total cost of ownership and increased scalability, all while delivering components of needed cybersecurity data protection.

The stress of managing security, hardware and system patching are no longer on us and we love that.

Secure Your Entire Data Environment

Migrating to a secure cloud environment with the right SaaS ERP provider will give you the peace of mind that your project data is secure and protected. The right partner assists you in monitoring for cyber threats on your behalf, so you can get back to delivering strategic value and invest your time back into your projects.

Your clients are becoming more cognizant of data security with large-scale cyberattacks such as the U.K. military data breach and Centene, raising awareness that data can be stolen if not protected and properly secured. This type of news can influence your customers’ decisions on who to select for their projects. So, using trusted partners to help secure and protect your firm’s data demonstrates that your company is the best choice.
