In cybersecurity, the greatest threats are often the ones we already know about. The average cost of a data breach in 2025 is projected to exceed $5 million globally—and more than $10 million in the United States, according to IBM’s latest Cost of a Data Breach Report. Yet what’s even more alarming is that roughly one in three breaches stem from known vulnerabilities for which patches already existed. That means these incidents weren’t the result of advanced nation-state attacks or zero-day exploits—they were the direct product of delay, disorganization, or simple complacency.

Cloud 101: Understanding The Essentials

An array of interconnected computers which form a network and provide system resources on-demand such as data storage and computing power is known as cloud hosted infrastructure. The term “cloud” was coined around the late twentieth century with the emergence of the internet. It is essentially a metaphor for storing data redundantly, in the sense that the data isn’t linked to any location in particular but instead resides in the overarching connections between computers, or in other words the “cloud”.
