In Cloud we Trust
Our world is more and more dependent on information, whose complexity and quantity keep growing exponentially. Today, a person or a company can no longer afford to invest and maintain its own IT complex infrastructure.
The Cloud represents a real paradigm change in the information world. ICT is becoming a commodity but more and more difficult to manage.
Nobody can stay away from this irreversible trend. A parallel can be drawn with agriculture: today you buy milk in a supermarket instead of milking the cow. Same for energy, you buy your electricity “on demand”. Tomorrow, everybody, private or professional, will buy their ICT resources in the “Cloud”, and on-demand.
Cloud and Distrust
The main issue with the "Cloud" is related to the sensibility of information. Each of us is perfectly right to be worried about the confidentiality and the availability of the information in a Cloud.
“My information system is hosted in a Cloud: where exactly? How are my data managed? Who has access to it? What are my guarantees?” All these questions are quite legitimate.
Cloud and Trust
Tomorrow's world will be based on information. But the future is becoming increasingly uncertain. Information is a critical resource that requires strict controls and protection.
ebrc’s mission and core business is to manage sensitive, that means confidential, critical or high available information.
ebrc is a company who believes that, in a digital uncertain world, it is absolutely necessary to provide clients with guarantees at all levels. These guarantees should ensure confidence, transparency and an audit trail of information. This could be guaranteed through strict processes and backed up with industry recognised certifications:
- 2 Tier IV certified Data Centres, the highest standard in terms of security (unique worldwide)
- ISO 27001 (Information Security standard)
- ISO 20000 (IT Service Management standard)
- PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard)
In the context of this paradigm shift and the high security requirements of this new information era, ebrc is positioning itself as a real centre for “Trusted Cloud” in the heart of Europe.
Welcome to the Trusted Cloud Europe paradigm !
