The document discusses the benefits of software as a service (SaaS) solutions and public clouds, noting that over 82% of businesses are moving workloads to these environments. However, some organizations still have privacy and control concerns over shared infrastructure in public clouds. A "bring your own key" (BYOK) option with a dedicated, private SaaS setup allows organizations to encrypt their data with their own keys and have it stored separately in their own account space while still leveraging the benefits of SaaS. This gives organizations additional privacy, visibility and control over their data storage.

2. Research shows that more
than 82% businesses
worldwide are moving their
workloads to SaaS solutions
on public clouds to take
advantage of unprecedented
reliability, security & scale.

3. SO WHAT IS SPARKING THIS CHANGE?
Let's take a look at some of the benefits a
SaaS Solution has to offer.

4. NO HARDWARE, NO CAPEX
Being cloud based there is no need
for any infrastructure, which means

MONITORINGNO

5. OPEX & FLEXIBLE
Saas solutions usually come on a
subscription based model, using a
pay as you go method, saving
you from the time and money
spent on planning, provisioning
and paying upfront for infra.

6. With SaaS all you need is an
internet connection to get the job
done, making your users mobile,
independent & productive.
EASY ACCESSIBILITY

7. Unlike other traditional software,
SaaS gives you guarantees on how
well the solution will perform.
SLA BACKED GUARANTEES

8. By having your data stored in
a separate data center, you
are guaranteed a second copy
of your data, should a mishap
occur on premise.
DATA SECURITY

9. Typically SaaS solutions are multi
tenant shared environments,
hosting the data of multiple
customers, separated virtually.
Note: Data Privacy is guaranteed by a
combination of Technology and tight
audited Processes

10. Despite the benefits offered by
SaaS, and the data privacy
guarantees, there are still many
organizations concerned over
shared infrastructure vulnerabilities
and also a lack of control/visibility
over where and how the data is
processed and stored in the cloud.
- Thales 2018 Data Threat Report

11. IT leaders who manage
legacy in premise systems
feel more in control of
privacy since they can
"SEE" & "FEEL"
the data in close proximity
& via backend access.

12. The big question
How do you adopt SaaS and
leverage its benefits while still
having full privacy, visibility &
control over your data?

13. Its a dedicated private storage and setup for your
organization in your own account in the public cloud,
albeit hosting the vendors software, and fully monitored,
maintained and managed by the vendor.
You encrypt your data and take control over the
management of the encryption keys to keep
your data visible only to you.
A PRIVATE, DEDICATED SAAS WITH YOUR OWN KEY CAN HELP

14. HOW THE DEDICATED
SAAS SETUP ON
VAULTASTIC WORKS

15. REASONS AN ORGANISATION WOULD OPT FOR VAULTASTIC'S DEDICATED SAAS SETUP INCLUDE:
Data residency laws or internal
organizational policies, which
mandate that your data be
collected, stored and processed
inside your country and the
vendor doesn’t have a SaaS
platform deployed in your region.

Customization of the
retention policies and
other parameters of your
email archives, beyond the
construct of Vaultastic’s
standard plans.
Complete, end-to-end control on the SaaS email archiving
infrastructure. This means the infrastructure and application
stack is fully managed and monitored by your team.

16. So while SaaS solutions come with
multiple layers of security, scalability
and data privacy guarantees, the
“bring your own key” option gives
organizations an additional option to
store and lock/encrypt their data in
their own space with a third party
cloud service provider on a public
cloud.

18. A Shared SaaS provides Data Privacy guarantees
backed by technology, an SLA, NDA and tight
audited processes and is cost effective since it’s a
multi-tenant shared setup.
A Dedicated SaaS BYOK gives you the all the above + your
data in your cloud account and your own lock on your
data, except that it may not be very cost effective
CONCLUSION

19. Adopt Shared SaaS to get a cost effective
setup with privacy guaranteed, unless your
corporate policy mandates full control with
a lock & key over your data.
