    Checklist...

    MS, US gov, Nortel, Canadian gov, etc, etc, etc. hacked.

    Anonomous, Lolzsec, Eastern Europe, China, etc, etc, etc. hacking.

    The Internet right now is a whitewash!

    The words private and cloud should not be put together.

    So #1 on the checklist should be, do you care if other people get your info/data, and if the answer is yes then skip the cloud.

      Private Cloud checklist

      1. Investigate cost of public cloud

      2. Panic, as you see your job disappearing

      3. Invite HP in

      4. Buy HP tin

      5. Build private cloud (or regular IIT infra)

      6. Stick it behind your under-funded security stack

      7. Don't patch

      8. Don't pen-test

      9. Get coat

      Customers who want private cloud are my favourite.
