Data storage checklist: look for these 3 things

Have you moved your organisation’s data storage over to a cloud storage provider yet?

Private Cloud

It’s a less expensive way of storing data since you only pay for the space you need. Additionally, it’s far more scalable than an in-house solution.

You don’t have servers taking up space in your office. You also don’t have to plan and maintain the security your own servers need.

But before you jump into the cloud feet first, here are 3 things you MUST look for in your provider:

  1. End-to-end encryption: This scrambles and fragments your data, making it useless to anyone who accesses it without a decryption key. The data is encrypted as soon as it leaves your devices. Even while it’s being stored, so no one else can view it.
  2. Share function: You need a robust and safe share function when you’re storing data. Some services allow you to share files via their platform instead of using your own email. You may even be able to specify how often a file can be shared.
  3. Multi-platform compatibility: Which devices and browsers will you be using to access your data? The best services will be compatible across different operating systems and devices, so you can get your files wherever you are, on whatever device you’re using.
