Threats to Cloud Storage

01 min

This chapter will focus on the threats associated with using cloud storage. I want all readers to be aware of the risks when working with cloud storage before we move on to encryption.

System failure and data loss: Technical issues or attacks can lead to data loss in cloud storage. It is important to regularly back up data to restore it in case of problems. For example, at one time, a bug in the Dropbox desktop application led to the irreversible deletion of user files. According to reports on forums, many users permanently lost data they had collected over the years.

Tip

Regularly back up your data on other media to be able to restore it in case of issues with the cloud service or loss of access to your account.
