The digital transformation of Swiss companies inevitably passes through the cloud, which proves to be a versatile solution to meet the challenges of the present and the future, with a focus on data security and regulatory compliance. Digitisation has revolutionised the corporate landscape worldwide, with a remarkable acceleration due to the 2020 pandemic. Even for Swiss companies today, data management and IT security are daily challenges, not only in terms of technology, but also in terms of regulatory compliance and staff training. Cloud computing has proven to be one of the main drivers of this digital transformation, enabling companies to make their systems more secure, resilient and scalable. But how is the technology ecosystem of Swiss companies changing thanks to the cloud?
The technological evolution of Swiss companies mainly follows two directions: on the one hand, the increasing digitisation and adoption of cloud solutions to increase efficiency; on the other hand, the need for robust infrastructures, with many companies outsourcing the management of their IT systems to public and private data centres, in order to keep costs down and not deal with technical aspects.
The need to ensure secure access to data, even remotely, has emerged as one of the main issues also in view of hybrid working. This is a priority in the light of new regulations such as the Swiss Data Protection Act and the European NIS2 directive: in fact, a cyber attack is not only economically and legally damaging for the company itself, but can also compromise the operations of its business partners.
Swiss companies must take concrete measures to ensure the security of their data, starting with the implementation of frameworks such as data protection by design and by default, which integrates security right from the design of systems, and training employees to prevent human error.
Another crucial aspect is planning the migration to the new infrastructure.
Tinext Cloud embraces hybrid-multi-cloud architectures, distributing services between its own data centres in Switzerland, hyperscalers and possible on-premises environments, harmoniously integrating these options to ensure maximum operational efficiency and optimal cost management.
Through a constant improvement process, we then ensure that the infrastructure remains compliant with regulations and optimised over the long term.
