The security of personal data is of utmost concern. Cloud storage is a convenient way to save and share files. If a computer freezes or information on a hard drive is inaccessible or corrupted, cloud storage is an alternate place to have a backup of digital documents. However, not only can systems be hacked into, as with the Sony emails and credit card fiasco at Home Depot, but information in transit can be vulnerable and “seen” by others. Create an additional security blanket around those personal and confidential files.
Encryption of files before sending them to a cloud or recipient adds an additional layer of protection. Such third party products are listed below:
- nCrypted Cloud
New featured product: Infinite Mail replaces embedded attachments with secure links only open through IT administrator directives. It interfaces well with Microsoft and Google email products.
- WatchDox
Functionality offers access to SharePoint, file shares, Google Drive to start. The Public Cloud feature allows employees to create virtual workspaces and send files quickly.
- Sookasa
Adds encryption and identity management and a user-friendly front-end management system. Specializes in medical and education needs.
The cloud storage providers such as Dropbox, Google Drive, Box and Microsoft OneDrive cannot access or disclose the files. Neither can the third-party products listed above. The keys to the kingdom remain solely in a sender’s hands.
