When they need a cloud solution, many people turn to Azure because they trust Microsoft’s options. Since these options come from such a well-established, large company, it’s not surprising that they would select Azure over other choices. Cloud Computing Technologies (CCT) is an Azure small business partner and highly recommends Microsoft Azure choices. They can be the best solution for all your cloud needs and make all your data available at your fingertips, no matter where you are.
With Azure, you can have the peace of mind that comes with knowing your virtual storage is ready and waiting for you. Further information is available at Microsoft Windows Azure Cloud.
Microsoft Windows Azure: Enterprise-Grade GovCloud Platform
CCT and Microsoft Azure GovCloud can mean virtual options, a remote app, virtual machines, an SQL database, machine learning, and much more. Irrespective of the size and type of your organization, it’s difficult to go wrong with a product like Azure platform storage. A company as large and focused as Microsoft knows how to make their Azure virtual options among the best in the business, and something that brings value to customers.
Microsoft Government Cloud Computing options give your company instant access to its data no matter where your employees happen to be. You will have access to powerful cloud services with the familiar Microsoft services just a click away. The Azure Cloud becomes even more attractive if your I.T. infrastructure is already integrated with other Microsoft services such as Active Directory.
It is important to note that only Azure features that are optimized for security and compliance are available on Microsoft Azure Government. GovCloud related services are only supported at specialized high-security data centers across the U.S.
Benefits of Azure Cloud and CCT
The following are just some of the significant benefits of obtaining Azure Cloud services in consultation with CCT:
- Microsoft Azure is fully integrated with other Microsoft tools, which you are already familiar with like SharePoint, Office365, and Outlook.
- Enterprise Reliability from Microsoft’s growing number of global managed data centers. They ensure security, high availability, and reliability.
- You can rest assured about your organization’s data and applications because Azure Cloud is backed by Microsoft – a long-standing and credible brand in infrastructure.
- Big data and Data analytics are significant parts of most modern businesses. Azure offers both SQL and NoSQL data analytics services and storage for developers and data scientists.
- If your organization focuses on Data Science, then Microsoft Azure’s Apache Hadoop-based cloud service is your number one choice.
- The Azure Blueprints service will assist you to automate the process of achieving compliance on the Azure Government platform
Security on the Microsoft Azure Government
Azure Government is secured at five layers to ensure complete compliance with all types of Government security policies:
- Physical layer: all of Microsoft Azure’s data centers are carefully protected sites with many levels of physical security such as high-security perimeters, checkpoints, CCTV cameras, biometric security, and access control, among many others.
- Data is encrypted to ensure that no unwarranted access takes place. Data is typically encrypted during storage (known as at rest). In addition, data is also encrypted when in transit through all channels.
- Encryption is only as secure as the keys that are used for encryption. Azure ensures the security of cryptographic keys through Azure Key Vault, which uses the best in class FIPS 140-2 Level 2 validated Hardware Security Modules (HSM).
- Data is isolated at many levels, such as Root O.S., Hypervisor, VLAN, and Guess VMs to ensure that data is never shared among customers.
- Datacenter operators and personnel are screened according to FedRAMP High baseline and Department of Defense (DoD) Impact Level 5 P.A. accreditation.
In addition, the Azure Security Center is a unified infrastructure security management system that will allow you to monitor and strengthen the overall security of your Azure Government platform.
Compliance on the Microsoft Azure Government
Cloud services providers are expected to have multiple certifications in order to be eligible for GovCloud projects. Azure does not disappoint in this regard and possesses over 90 globally recognized compliance certifications.
The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is one of the most vital compliance certificates for operating a GovCloud within the U.S. Microsoft Azure Government is certified as a High baseline partner, ensuring the best possible security and compliance ratings.
FedRAMP encourages agile cloud-based I.T. instead of obsolete legacy systems. This means that adherence ensures the latest technology and methodologies. Azure Government, Dynamics 365 Government, and Office 365 U.S. Government are FedRAMP certified making them feasible for any government agency or customer. It also ensures that all Datacenter operators and personnel are U.S. citizens and that they are not listed on any criminal databases.
Microsoft Azure Government is also accredited with DoD Impact Level 2 through 4. This further enforces FedRAMP and many other compliance requirements. Azure is also certified with many independent audit agencies such as ISO 27001, ISO 27018, SOC 1, SOC 2, SOC3, FedRAMP, HITRUST, MTCS, IRAP, and ENS. You will be able to obtain independent audit reports from any of these agencies before contracting with them.
Microsoft Cloud and CCT
Being able to access Azure from a mobile device makes it highly efficient and can take your company to the next level and help it stand out among its competitors. The value of Microsoft Azure Government comes from its rich feature set and the many ways in which it is extremely easy to get access to the data you want.
Microsoft Azure options provide a high degree of security. People who aren’t authorized are not going to be able to get to any of your data on the Microsoft Azure Government platform, so you and your customers can rest assured.
