CHALLENGES
Security & Privacy Concerns :
One of the biggest challenges of cloud computing is ensuring the security and
privacy of data stored in the cloud. This includes protecting against unauthorized
access, data breaches, and other cyber threats.
Reliability & Availability :
Cloud computing relies on an internet connection to access resources, which can
lead to issues with reliability and availability. Downtime or slow connection speeds
can impact productivity and cause frustration for users.
Cost Management :
While cloud computing can offer cost savings compared to traditional IT
infrastructure, it can also be challenging to manage costs effectively. Organizations
need to carefully monitor their usage and optimize their resources to avoid
unexpected expenses.
