With the advent of cloud-based solutions such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cobicon.de\/en\/analytics\/sap-analytics-cloud\/\">SAP Analytics Cloud<\/a> (SAC), the question arises as to whether data is as secure in the cloud as it is on the servers in the company\u2019s own data center. This blog post examines the security aspects of the SAP Analytics Cloud compared to tradi\u00adtional on-premise solutions and highlights important conside\u00adra\u00adtions that companies should take into account when deciding on a parti\u00adcular data infra\u00adstructure.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sovereignty-over-the-data\">Sovereignty over the data<\/h2>\n<p>As a general rule, companies do not lose control of their data when they use the SAP Analytics Cloud. With live connec\u00adtions, the solution only processes metadata in the cloud, while the actual data remains in the company\u2019s system without external repli\u00adcation. This means that data sovereignty and control remain in the hands of the company, regardless of whether the data is managed in the cloud or on-premise.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"security-measures-in-the-cloud\">Security measures in the cloud<\/h2>\n<p>Cloud solutions such as the SAP Analytics Cloud are already considerably more secure than many companies assume. Modern techno\u00adlogies such as TwinCore and IP-VPN tunnels are used for secure data transfer to ensure the integrity and confi\u00adden\u00adtiality of data. In addition, the SAP Analytics cloud software is set up, hosted, maintained and updated entirely by SAP in its own data centers as \u201cSoftware as a Service\u201d (SaaS), which includes additional security precau\u00adtions and regular maintenance.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"comparison-with-on-premise-solutions\">Compa\u00adrison with on-premise solutions<\/h2>\n<p>When considering on-premise solutions, companies must also take into account the vulnerability to data espionage or cyber\u00adcrime as well as the costs and effort involved in moder\u00adnizing and operating an on-premise solution. It is important to note that your own data center \u201con site\u201d is also suscep\u00adtible to security risks and that cloud solutions are already much more secure than many people think.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Security and data protection in the cloud compared to on-premise solutions are important aspects that companies should consider when selecting their data infra\u00adstructure. The SAP Analytics Cloud offers modern security measures and techno\u00adlogies to ensure data integrity and confi\u00adden\u00adtiality, while at the same time the company retains sovereignty over the data. It is important to carefully weigh up the pros and cons of cloud and on-premise solutions in order to make the best possible decision in terms of security and data protection.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, it is clear that cloud solutions such as the SAP Analytics Cloud are already much more secure than many companies assume and that they are a reliable and secure alter\u00adnative to tradi\u00adtional on-premise solutions.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Protect your data in the cloud with modern security solutions!
