​Cloud Information Security – What We Do to Keep Your Data Safe, Backed Up, and Always Available​

Migrating your business infrastructure to the cloud brings many advantages: flexibility, operational convenience, cost savings, and high availability. But alongside these clear benefits, many businesses naturally have concerns about data security. At OMC Cloud, we understand this concern and are committed to managing your data in the best, safest, and most professional way. In this article, we will outline in full transparency how we keep your data secure, available, and backed up at all times.

Your business data is your most valuable asset, and its security is a critical issue that should not be taken lightly. Whether it's sensitive financial data, customer records, or internal organizational information, any security breach can damage customer trust, hurt your company's reputation, and lead to significant financial losses.

Although the cloud offers a high level of security thanks to advanced technologies and structured procedures, it is the responsibility of the cloud service provider to clearly show how it manages security efficiently and transparently.

One of the first questions clients ask us is: "Is my data backed up?" The answer is unequivocally yes. Not only is it backed up, but we do it professionally, continuously, and accurately:

Frequent automatic backups:We perform full daily backups of your data. If necessary, backup frequency can be increased—even to the level of hourly backups. This ensures that even in the event of a critical failure, almost no data is lost.

Backups in multiple physical locations:Backups are stored in at least two geographically separated data centers. This ensures that even in the case of a natural disaster or an unusual event at a specific site, your data will always be protected and recoverable.

Instant recovery capability:Our clients enjoy an easy-to-use management interface that allows data to be restored with the click of a button—no third party involved.

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are one of the most common threats to internet and cloud infrastructures. These attacks aim to crash or disrupt services by flooding the system with fake requests. At OMC Cloud, we tackle this threat through:

Automatic detection and filtering systems:Advanced networking equipment, such as smart firewalls and IPS systems, detects and neutralizes DDoS attacks in real-time before they can affect your services.

A broad global network:With 24 data centers worldwide, we can effectively handle even large-scale attacks, ensuring uninterrupted service and consistent performance.

24/7 rapid human response:We don't rely solely on automated systems—our security team is available around the clock to respond immediately to any incident.

Mitigation outside of Israel:Thanks to our proprietary intelligent systems, many attacks are blocked by us before they even reach Israel. In many cases, users won’t even notice there was an attack.

We believe our clients deserve to know exactly how we protect their data. As part of our commitment to transparency, we share the following procedures:

Strict access and permissions management:Access to all systems and servers is secured through advanced authentication mechanisms, including two-factor authentication (2FA), and strict user-level permission controls.

Strong encryption of data:We use AES-256 encryption—the industry standard—for both data at rest and data in transit.

Ongoing monitoring and real-time alerts:Our systems are monitored 24/7, including periodic security audits, penetration tests, and continuous threat analysis.

Regular security updates:We apply regular updates to operating systems and software to ensure they are always protected against the latest threats.

Immediate and transparent incident reporting:If a security event occurs—even a minor one—we are committed to informing you immediately, explaining the nature of the event and what steps were taken to address it. In most cases, alerts are sent automatically to both our support team and the client.

At OMC Cloud, we see the security of your data as the cornerstone of our service. By combining frequent backups, advanced DDoS protection, and complete transparency about our security protocols, we provide you with the peace of mind that your data is in the best possible hands.
