Software-as-a-Service Solutions
Background
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) is a software deployment model that allows specific applications to be delivered and managed as a service by the vendor. SaaS solutions are most often deployed over the Internet, where these can meet the needs of multiple customers simultaneously. Users are permitted to leverage the software functionality without the burden of deploying and managing the software themselves. The solutions are priced on a subscription service basis, whereby customers purchase access rights instead of the entire application as a unit or a product. This eliminates the added costs and complexities of deploying additional hardware and software, or dedicating additional staff resources to support the application on an ongoing basis.
The growing number of malicious attacks on information systems—whether email-borne, Web-based, or propagated across the network—is impacting individuals and organizations in many ways. Security is becoming more complex with rapidly evolving threats, difficult management of disparate on-site security solutions, and increased burden on IT resources. For optimal protection, threats must be managed in the cloud, before they reach users’ systems and compromise both infrastructure and information.
