Securing your cloud based resources can be difficult. When you move to the cloud, you give up a certain level of control over your machines. That doesn’t have to mean you accept all the default configurations for the security of your virtual machines in Azure.
In this webcast Nathan O’Bryan (MCSM/MVP) will cover some simple steps you can take to secure your virtual machines hosted in Azure.

Office 365 has a number of built-in data security tools, making it possible scan for keywords with regex filters or even upload document fingerprints to identify company-specific data. This can be enough for some organizations.
But what if you need more advanced capabilities? In this webinar, we will look at the built-in DLP capabilities and demonstrate how you can apply advanced data classification tools provided by Symantec, McAfee, GTB or any of the leading DLP vendors. We will show how you can integrate them into policy workflows that manage share policies, interact with users and even incorporate your choice of file encryption.
We will show how you can take your Office 365 data protection policies and enforce them across Azure and all of your other enterprise SaaS. Then, we will integrate all the compliance event logging into your existing SIEM for centralized reporting.
There is a widespread misconception that data created and stored in the cloud does not need to be backed up. When data is deleted or corrupted, companies face three major problems: Lost data, lost time and lost cash. When Office 365 fails, backup and recovery are a crucial component for any business.
Learn about cloud data recoverability and how to take control of your Office 365 data in our upcoming webinar.
