Study outlines the contours and the magnitude of the asymmetry in the opposition of cyber defense against hackers. Propose a
model that reflects the dynamics of the opposition on both sides and the impact of the listed disproportions. It consist a functional analysis of the differences between organizational and technical approaches applied from both sides. Contains research into why even the most highly protected systems suffer from successful hacking attacks. The analysis sheds light on the magnitude of pressure exerted by malicious actors on cyber security for organizations and the disproportionate response from experts who protect information systems and networks.

The adoption of new technologies in organizations requires a preliminary assessment of risks, pro and cons of the planned change (SWOT analysis and change management). This paper acknowledges the important changes which are occurring in the security of the ICT systems in the organizations as a consequence from the transfer to the cloud services.

Traditionally, IT is positioned behind the firewall of any organization and all servers, virtualized or not, are specific as a service for any business. The authority which supports the security systems could choose the components for security among multiple proved products – firewalls, antivirus systems, servers, updates management, proxy servers, etc. In this way is guaranteed the high level of control upon the security of IT environment and the requirements of different standards for security.
