    Summary

    • Understand that cloud computing and virtualisation are


    complementary yet different technologies
    • Existing malware and DLP technologies are only
    somewhat useful
    • Security software must not just coexistence with
    virtualised environments, they need to exploit the new
    model
    • Information governance is a critical issue for cloud
    computing models
