Cloud services that emphasize security will not only draw more interest from your customers, they’ll also ensure that you’re able to evade the costly dangers that insufficiently secure services tend to experience. Since companies consider safety and security the most important features in IT services, your top priority should be offering the most secure cloud services available.

As an MSP, this growth represents a major opportunity both to attract new customers to your business portfolio and to upsell your existing customers with additional secure cloud-based services. Today 75% of companies rely on the cloud for backups and storage and with the increasing ubiquity of secure cloud services, that percentage isn’t going to do anything but grow.

Over a decade has passed since “cloud computing” entered the global vocabulary.
