Fact: About 80% of cloud breaches are self-inflicted.

As you move data to the cloud, you must prioritize secure configurations and consistent monitoring to mitigate risks. Without the proper oversight, you can expose sensitive data, leading to compliance failures, potential breaches, and damage to your reputation.

Tec-Refresh solves these challenges by:

  • Eliminating security vulnerabilities during migration.
  • Preventing costly downtime and data loss.
  • Ensuring regulatory compliance.
  • Managing complex application dependencies.
  • Maintaining business continuity.
  • Implementing proper security controls.

The Benefits of Cloud Migration

As companies navigate digital transformation, increasing customer demands, and integration of AI and machine learning, cloud computing provides the scalability and processing power you need to manage your business more efficiently.

Cost Savings

Cost Savings

You can eliminate expensive on-prem hardware, updates, and maintenance — reducing your total cost of ownership (TCO). Your managed services provider handles that for you, streamlining costs and simplifying your IT management. This frees up resources that you can use elsewhere within your organization. You also avoid paying for capacity you don’t need…until you need it.

Scalability & Availability

Scalability and Availability

Migrating to cloud environments enables you to scale easily to accommodate shifts in workloads. This provides you access to cutting-edge production environments that can improve performance and time-to-market. Cloud resources let you innovate faster and be more agile to meet changing customer demands.

Workflow Modernization

Workflow Modernization

By transforming your legacy IT infrastructure to cloud computing, you can provide work-from-anywhere access to your employees and futureproof your environment. You get enhanced reliability and redundancy to avoid downtime. As companies invest in artificial intelligence and data analytics, you get the robust environment you need to leverage cutting-edge technology.

Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery

Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery

Automated backups, data redundancy, and geographical flexibility are staples of major cloud platforms, providing more robust business continuity and disaster recovery.

Enhanced Security

Enhanced Security

With the right technology partner, you can enhance cybersecurity. With real-time threat detection and response built into your cloud migration strategy, you can strengthen your cyber defenses against threat actors.
