The cloud ecosystem has also been focused on the security of the user’s information. Amazon.Com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) can foster this measure through Aviatrix NetConnect where users can create virtual private clouds. There is also the FortyCloud’s cloud security SaaS solution where firms can create their secure, virtual private network over a series of geographic locations and data centers.
