(1888PressRelease) November 07, 2013 - Tempe, AZ -- Black Dog Promotions is proud to announce a dynamic new webinar that will be produced jointly with CloudeAssurance and Data Privacy Network. With the explosion of the "cloud" recently, it is increasingly being embraced by businesses worldwide. In taking it to the next level--security of data, files and information need to be of the utmost importance. Founder Taiye Lambo and Lead Cloud Security Analyst Jordan Flynn of CloudeAssurance and Co-Founder of Data Privacy Network, Phil Alexander will conduct this vitally important webinar on Wednesday, November 20th, 11:00 a.m. EST/8:00 a.m. PST.

"What we're going to focus on are the real world benefits of the cloud," said Alexander. "There are definite benefits. You have worldwide collaboration, rapid deployment and reduced cost. It's much easier to go through an established cloud service provider than to try and create a cloud environment in your own network." There are also risks that are involved with using a cloud environment. "We will ask the attendee to consider several things," noted Alexander. Questions to consider will be: 1) What level of security is right for your company? 2) What's the nature of your data? 3) How sensitive is that data? 4) Is data co-mingled? "If it's just non-sensitive, fully-disclosed data, security is less of an issue." The webinar will utilize three state-of-the-industry experts to help walk business owners and IT experts through the myriad of security exposure scenarios and give valuable strategies and solution ideas to help organizations protect their data. An attendee Q&A session will also take place towards the end of the webinar.

"We'll be exchanging a lot of ideas. The main thing we'll be talking about are the benefits of adopting the cloud for business and then the potential security issues of putting your information in the cloud," stated Lambo. There are also some other important issues that businesses will be made aware of and how best to handle various security issues. "We'll be sharing our high level research and explaining our Top 10 cloud service provider independent benchmark study information," Lambo said. Flynn added, "This webinar focuses on how to enable the benefits of the cloud securely." The webinar is free of charge and attendees can sign up here https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/9459/91376.

The collaboration between CloudeAssurance and Data Privacy Network will continue beyond their initial webinar, too. "We're so like-minded. It's one of those things that you can't have privacy without security," said Lambo. "And we share the same philosophy." The ultimate goal is for the two companies together to increase awareness of online security while conducting webinars and speaking engagements designed to give businesses valuable knowledge and strategies to protect their business information.
