Security Leaks Result In Spike In Demand For Secure Offshore Hosting
The company provides offshore backup and hosting services to maintain data security.
Secure Hosting has seen a spike in demand for their secure offshore cloud hosting as a direct result of recent security leaks in the U.S.
With the recent PRISM Scandal in particular, many businesses are concerned over which jurisdiction their data is stored in. For international customers, using U.S. facilities is no longer an option.
NASSAU, THE BAHAMAS, July 24, 2013 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Two recent whistleblowing induced events have been fortuitous for Secure Hosting, The Bahamas and Bermuda based offshore hosting services provider. The company has enjoyed a surge in business as a direct result of the Offshore Leaks scandal in April and the more recent NSA PRISM scandal. — Richard Douglas, CTO of Secure Hosting
Both scandals have demonstrated the vulnerability of U.S.-based hosting facilities and have sparked worldwide concern over data privacy. The Offshore Leaks scandal alone exposed the account details of over 130,000 individuals, while PRISM brought to light the risks associated with using American based hosting services. Both events have raised the question of just how secure and private business data is with these services because with U.S. service providers, the government can request business information under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act without the company in question ever knowing.
“With the recent PRISM Scandal in particular, many businesses are concerned over which jurisdiction their data is stored in. For international customers, using U.S. facilities is no longer an option. Companies with global operations using U.S.-controlled cloud services, such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure and Rackspace are now looking offshore for their data hosting needs," noted Richard Douglas, CTO of Secure Hosting (www.securehost.com).
The Bahamas and Bermuda have proven to be the ideal location for offshore cloud hosting and offshore backup due to their stringent privacy and data protection laws and high speed fiber access to the American marketplace. As a result, Secure Hosting has seen a surge in business at their three data centers in the Caribbean.
