Comply with regulations
Organizations must comply with a wide variety of regulations.
Keeping data secure and private isn’t easy. Compliance is particularly challenging for multinational organizations, especially in heavily regulated industries like healthcare and financial services. Standards and regulations also change frequently, making it difficult for businesses to keep up with international electronic data handling laws, which is why many have adopted a cloud-first or cloud-only strategy.
- Cloud-first strategy
-
Organizations aim to use cloud services as much as possible and consider using cloud computing solutions before any other types of solutions.
- Cloud-only strategy
-
Everything is in the cloud.
With PingOne Advanced Services, Ping Identity is responsible for monitoring and managing much of the platform and infrastructure. You can even deploy to different regions to support data sovereignty and other regulatory requirements.
Organizations have their own dedicated cloud environments in which all hardware, software, and data resources are isolated and many different ways to securely connect them to on-premise resources, which helps them comply with strict security and privacy regulations.
Redundancy is also built into their global networks, as shown in the following diagram. With this redundancy in place, data backup and disaster recovery are much easier and less expensive to implement in the cloud than on premises, which is why it’s often required.
