(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Managed hosting provider NaviSite (www.navisite.com) announced on Wednesday it has joined the Cloud Security Alliance (www.cloudsecurityalliance.org) as a corporate sponsor member to help establish and promote best practices for security in cloud computing.
The move comes just a month after the company unveiled it is shifting its focus away from colocation to concentrate more on hosting, managed services and cloud computing services.
NaviSite will launch its new fully managed cloud services this month with the full-production release slated for a May release.
In joining the organization, NaviSite will support the Cloud Security Alliance’s initiatives by working closely with other alliance members to address key security related concerns around adoption of Cloud Computing for enterprise applications.
The Cloud Security Alliance is a non-profit organization that promotes the use of best practices for providing security assurance within cloud computing, and to provide education on the uses of cloud computing to help secure all other forms of computing.
The Cloud Security Alliance is led by a broad organization of industry practitioners, corporations, associations and other key stakeholders.
NaviSite has been managing mission critical, enterprise applications for more than a decade, with a roster of clients including Oracle, PeopleSoft, Siebel, and JD Edwards.
“As cloud computing evolves, NaviSite is excited to be involved in helping set standards and work to develop cloud security best practices,” says Denis Martin, chief technology officer at NaviSite. “We are committed to provide best cloud solutions to our customers and being part of CSA will helps us move one step further in our goal.”
