Our reality today is that the web is a huge target for attacks by hackers looking for confidential information. To prepare for such attacks, developers need to provide protection “in the cloud”–which is where it is specifically needed.
We are living in an age where technology is always on, facilitating real-time communications including voice, data and video.
