Examples include hacker attacks, IT system failures, data loss, or even power outages. More and more companies recognize that cybersecurity is a key element in protecting their operations.
To stay competitive and meet growing demands, companies must constantly innovate. Implementing new technologies, such as cloud-based solutions, introduces new threats that can significantly impact a company’s security and operational stability.
To increase control over data and operations, many companies are turning to alternative solutions such as local or hybrid systems that combine the benefits of cloud technology with the security of storing data on internal servers. Using local servers allows full control over where data is stored, who has access to it, and how it is protected. This gives the company direct influence over data security without relying solely on external service providers.
However, many enterprises—despite the advantages of local storage—still need to collaborate with external suppliers and service providers, sharing selected information. To ensure secure communication, solutions such as VPN (Virtual Private Network) are commonly used. A VPN creates a secure, encrypted connection between a device and a server, hiding the actual IP address and protecting data from unauthorized access.
