One of the most talked-about and potential IT advancements in the current technological sector is cloud computing. Organizations find it particularly appealing because of its potential benefits, including improved effectiveness and cost reductions. It represents a significant change in the way computing resources are made available to enterprises. The usage of computers and the Internet by businesses has altered as a result of cloud computing, and this change mainly affects how data is kept and how apps are utilized (Benlian et al., 2018). When users are linked to the Internet, they have access to their data, documents, and apps. By removing the physical barriers of separate systems and automating the management of a set of systems as a unified unit, cloud computing enables enterprises to utilize their hardware and software investments more effectively.

 The use of cloud computing may significantly improve the productivity of many businesses' work operations. It is believed that this technology is a virtualized system that represents a natural progression of data centers. Future company costs will be most affected by cloud computing. Utilizing the software as a service (SaaS) approach in cloud computing improves corporate operations (Benlian et al., 2018). Due to this SaaS, in the future, high enterprises will be low cost, and small businesses will be highly expensive. Because all services in major corporate organizations will eventually transfer to computer services, the general public and small business owners must pay high prices for business services. Due to the widespread use of SaaS cloud computing services in software organizations, IT software company revenues will increase. Instead of purchasing a product all at once, people rent a computer and IT-related devices and services.

Cybersecurity is necessary for companies since the chances of cyberattacks increase daily. There have been frequent reports concerning attacks; therefore, small and big organizations should work to ensure security. Many organizations fail to take security seriously due to various reasons. First, the predictions of the possibility of attacks and the extent of losses likely to be incurred are difficult. The organizations also underfund security since they use wrong models that do not give them the right prediction of the necessary funds for cybersecurity. Another reason organizations fail to take cybersecurity seriously is that they view cybersecurity as a type of fortification process whereby strong will enable them to identify threats from far (Pernice, 2018). Therefore, they fail to ensure that they are keen on determining the likelihood of cyberattacks. They also assume that compliance with the NIST or any other security framework is enough to protect them from cyberattacks.

Finally, organizations that have never or recently not incurred a security breach don't see the need to fix the flaws that may be existing seems; they think it may not be of any problem. These are the main reasons revealed in a survey to determine whether the companies are still keen on ensuring cybersecurity. Although some companies try to adopt various security techniques, there is a disparity in how they approach security. According to the reports, the unseriousness of cyberattacks has resulted in frequent attacks (Pernice, 2018). Pretext scams have emerged as the most popular technique applied in businesses whereby emails are sent to trick people and the attackers pretend to be that company's senior executives. Other common attacks that are frequently experienced are ransomware attacks and passwords. Thus, companies must prioritize identifying the techniques for securing the endpoints for their workers.
