    Automates backups and data protection, eliminating your need for costly and bulky on-premises servers.

    Enables quick replication and recovery of data and workloads in the case of a disaster.

    Simply put, Microsoft Azure gives you solid data protection, excellent backup capabilities, and automatic regulatory compliance. Another perk is Azure’s flexible pricing, making it an affordable and cost-efficient solution for organizations of all sizes.

    Empowering Your Security with Identity and Access Strategies

    A dynamic and well-managed security, identity, and access strategy is critical in today’s digital landscape. Cyber threats are becoming more common and more sophisticated, meaning the need for proactive security measures has never been more important. It not only protects your employees, your stakeholders, your partners, and most importantly your customers, but it also gives them confidence in your organization.

    So, what can Stoneridge Software’s Cloud Consulting resources offer you?

    Identity and Access Management (IAM)

    Stoneridge will assess your current Identity and Access Management (IAM) strategy to identify opportunities for improvement and put together the next steps. IAM is a critical security measure that safeguards your sensitive data from unauthorized access. It also:

    • Ensures your users have the proper level of access, minimizing data bleeds or leaks
    • Streamlines user access management, authentication, and authorization processes enhancing efficiency and reducing administrative tasks.
    • Allows you to enact and optimize IAM policies and procedures.

    Security Assessments and Consulting

    Our experts will meet with your team and analyze your current security processes to identify vulnerabilities, deficiencies, and potential risks. This gives you a holistic view of your environment and a picture of what can be improved. After that, you can prioritize investments and allocate the proper resources to the places that need them most.

    From there we will get to work with you on creating a roadmap and then setting up your Microsoft Azure environment so you can take advantage of the many benefits of the Microsoft cloud.
