When you find a service provider that can supply your company with a hybrid cloud option, you will be able to access the entire cloud environment via an administrator portal. Within the portal, you would be able to access the multiple dashboards for the types of cloud that you have in your network.

Each of the cloud options that you are provided will include a firewall that will ensure hacker prevention and intrusion protection. You would have total control of these security options so that you may customize the enhanced security based on your specific business needs.

With the power of public and private clouds, you will be able to have both separate clouds work in your favor. They will appear as two different entities so that it can decrease any risk of confusion. You can also reduce issues with allocating resources within your server because of this physical separation. Your IT team will never have the issue of trying to distinguish or even view assets since hybrid cloud allows you to have full control and access to all your cloud servers in one network. Customization helps with this issue as well since you can create multi-tier architectural networks. Since you and your IT team will have the ease of managing the networks effortlessly, your company will have more time to focus on higher priority IT projects. This brings more productivity and efficiency to your company!

If your business if using a Software as a Service (SaaS) application and has some worries about security then you should be using a hybrid cloud. You would be able to have the SaaS vendor create a private cloud within your hybrid cloud network. Within this private cloud, you would also get assigned a virtual private network (VPN) for even more security! You would have to keep track of the multiple different security platforms but that should be simple if you have an IT team.

It would be ideal to use a hybrid cloud as well if you are providing a service to different types of business to consumer markets. You would be able to have consumer access your public cloud while you keep their sensitive data safe in a separate public cloud.
