Let's talk about "the cloud" the convience of having everything where ever you need it.
They say it's the frontier of mobile computing being able to access your files from where ever you are through mobile devices.
Where are your files being held? Who's holding them, are they secure?
If this is the future, what are your guarantees that your personal information will be safe and sound. I began this post a couple years ago believing that I would return to this within a few days. Wow what a difference two years made. I still have concerns about "The Cloud" and so did others, and so much that serveral ideas have brought products to market.
The very idea of being able to access your own personal information easily from your smartphone or tablet makes me actually excited.
I have invested in a new product that I trust. The product is called the transporter by connected data. This product is hardware based. I have the model called "The sync" this device allows you to use an external hard drive of your size and brand of choosing. The web interface and software allows for you to have an encrypted connection to your computers and mobile devices (telephones etc.) The software functions almost like Dropbox to a degree but has a very savvy encryption which only allow those who you give access to your things to view them.
So far my personal cloud device has done well for me. Helping me to maximize the storage on my mobile devices. There are other devices that have hit the market as well and sport some very nice feature. Western Digital's my cloud drive does some of the same things my transporter does but extra because it makes streaming your media content like movies easier. "The My Cloud" drive seamlessly connects to WD media hubs through networking features. Awesome I really like the feature but I'm gonna use what I have to it's fullest! I'm not a "Customer Zombie" (laughing ) but I'm close when it comes to tech! My summation of the cloud is this, if you can make it your own then the sky is the limit.
Protecting your personal data is crucial so store your data where it is safe, with you (smile)
To be continued (clouds get bigger)
God bless
Remember good people
Dream, think, innovate and create!
