Cloud Usage: Risks and Opportunities

This survey was circulated to over 165 IT and security professionals in the U.S. and around the globe representing a variety of industry verticals and enterprise sizes. The goal was to understand their perception of how their enterprises are using cloud apps, what kind of data are moving to and through those apps, and what that means in terms of risks. Beyond raising awareness around cloud service risk, the findings of this survey are intended to provide usage intelligence that helps IT, security, and business decision-makers take action in their organizations – from consolidating and standardizing on the most secure and enterprise-ready cloud services, to knowing what policies will have the most impact, to understanding where to focus when educating users.
