Cloud Security

Centralized systems such as GIS Cloud, with encrypted disk partitions and the encrypted client connections, have facilities to be a much safer environment for confidential data than traditional GIS systems.

Traditional GIS requires users to transfer data from machine to machine. Employees can easily copy confidential files on USB pen drives and take them out of your company’s secure environment to work on these files at home. This obviously decreases security because USB pen drives get lost and stolen easily. Similar security problems exists with laptops and smartphones as well. Data is also exchanged via e-mails, which are unsecured if not encrypted.

GIS Cloud solves these issues by storing data in the cloud, on a server which is professionally secured. A server can be physically located in the GIS Cloud data center or in a client’s data center as well. Businesses can benefit from accessing their accounts and projects from anywhere, while their data remains safe and private.
