You guessed right, we are not talking about the gray summer weather. What we are talking about is the wide range of Cloud-based solutions that are getting increasingly more and more popular – also called “The Cloud.”
In short, The Cloud is a way for users to store all their data online instead of using Flash drives, USB-sticks or hard drives. The data is usually stored on a large global network of servers. To access your data you are only required to have a unit such as smartphone, laptop or computer) with online access.
One of the most known cloud-services is “Drop-Box” where users can store documents, images, videos etc. and have them available 24/7. One of the other major advantages is that all data stored in The Cloud, can be made easily accessible for other users as well.
Drop Box is just one of many services that in The Cloud.
The increased usage of cloud-based services also requires better and more advanced online security for each individual user. It only takes one security breach by one single user, and the entire group is left exposed to malicious threats to their own online security. Spyware easily becomes a huge threat.
We recommend that you always make sure that have an updated and functioning antispywareprogram or antivirus program installed on your computer. This way you and your fellow cloud users are safe from malicious programs and virus.
