| F5 Networks Urge Businesses To Put Their Applications In The Cloud |
During its early days, cloud technology was not seriously considered by businesses as it posed a great risk in security, a threat to the company’s critical data all in the cloud. Nowadays, cloud computing is fast becoming the best option for enterprises that needs their system easy to access, mobile and secured. Almost 70 percent of today’s organizations are using cloud technology. As per Cisco Global Cloud Index, global cloud traffic will more than quadruple over the next five years, projecting around 8.6 zettabytes of data by 2019, overloading 4 out of 5 data centers in the world.

Security breaches, attacks from anywhere, even in some corporate networks with firewalls. Even the connection to the company’s corporate network thru VPN technology can be risky. Most organizations want their data and information accessible anytime and anywhere so they are inclined to use cloud platform but they worry about security. They want the mobility of the cloud without its risks. They now face the challenge of secure user access. The cloud itself can authenticate if a user will be given access or not. However, for big companies, managing these data can be resource-exhausting.
Enter F5 BIG-IP platform, which helps companies provide authentication, authorization and encryption for employee access once the platform is deployed in both the primary and cloud data centers. It manages incoming and outgoing traffic across the servers for maximum resource availability. A pair of BIG-IP devices to handle servers for both core and perimeter networks ensures your network to be fast, secure and readily available to all legitimate users.
