Fortify your cloud and colocation environments

Cyber threats constantly evolve, making the security, resiliency, and optimal performance of your hybrid IT environments a critical and ongoing priority. The Flexential Security and Optimization Program for Flexential cloud and colocation environments is designed to address these challenges and empower organizations to navigate the complexities of their IT landscape with increased confidence.

Mitigating risks: A proactive approach

According to 451 Research, the cost of outages increased 84% between 2022 ($1.56 mil) and 2024 ($2.33 mil), with many of those outages caused by ransomware and other cybersecurity-related events. This staggering statistic underscores the urgency of implementing robust security measures to safeguard your organization's digital assets. Failing to address IT risk leads to susceptibility to security incidents, data loss, ransomware, and unplanned downtime.

The Flexential Security and Optimization Program is a comprehensive solution that helps mitigate risks associated with virtual machine and data migration, lack of in-house expertise, under or over-provisioned resources, and unknown security gaps. By partnering with Flexential, you can proactively identify and address potential risks before they cause significant harm to your organization and reputation.
