In early 2019, IPC published a two(1)-part(2) blog post about the race to the public cloud and the inherent risks involved in these services.

Now, with the world changing so drastically and 2020 coming to a merciful end, revisiting this topic is paramount. Nimbleness and agility are more critical than ever, especially since many, including myself, are working from home. However, what hasn't changed are the risks I spoke about that existed 22 months ago. When considering the situation from a different angle, one with the necessary push to work remotely, the risks perhaps have become more severe.
