by Tek-Tips |
|
The promise of the cloud comes down to the ability to take any amount of data and process it through a distributed computing environment. Keith Stewart of Cisco says it is a lot like creating a central place where the information can be analyzed and attacks prevented.
Cisco announced a number of cloud security initiatives at the RSA Conference this week. We caught up with Keith to learn a bit more about their view on “the promise of the cloud.”

Well the discussion I have had recently with many different organisations across many different industries are now resulting in more and more consumer projects in this area |
