There are several reasons why content is more secure in the cloud:
- Centralized Security: Radio.Cloud offers centralized security management, which means updates and patches are applied consistently across all systems, reducing cyber security risks.
- Advanced Encryption: Data in the cloud is protected by advanced encryption methods, both during transmission and at rest, ensuring that your content is accessible only to authorized users.
- Emergency Recovery: In the case of any data loss due to hardware failure, natural disaster, or cyber-attack, audio is backed up every five minutes in multiple data centers in different locations, so station content can be recovered and restored almost instantly.
- Reduced Physical Risks: Since the Radio.Cloud infrastructure is off-site, it’s less susceptible to local outages, theft, or damage that can affect on-premises hardware.
- Continuous Monitoring: Radio.Cloud continuously monitors your network for suspicious activity, providing real-time security alerts and mitigating threats immediately.
