Organizations of all sizes and in all industries are finding it costly to modify incident reporting systems once they have been installed. As a result, as time goes on, the threats, risks, processes and reporting requirements of organizations have changed, while they remain tied to the systems implemented years ago.

It's a common factor that organizations change, often acquiring new businesses and divesting of others. Internal and external threats change, and reporting requirements increase as regulatory bodies tighten oversight and companies expand across borders. These changes involve new threats and exposure to new risks, which need to be managed properly. A key tool in ensuring this happens is an incident management system, which must be flexible from the outset in order to accommodate new challenges.

Today there are hundreds of technologies that solve varied security and management problems, and new solutions are introduced daily to solve problems that have yet to be discovered. IT security and operations are drowning in this cycle of evaluating new products and vendors, performing the R&D to select the right product, purchasing this product, and integrating it with all of the other security technologies. Most companies remain insecure, not because they lack great technology but because they lack the time and money to deploy and manage it.

Enter the cloud. Instead of a business permanently hosting their own servers and applications, they can consume these IT services as needed from the cloud. Doing so lowers costs, reduces the total server count needed, ensures the latest software version is running, and automatically rebalances workload as usage ebbs and flows.
