With the growth of technology came the need to store data on a larger scale and have access to it from anywhere you are. Thus the cloud was created. With the creation of the cloud and storing data in cyberspace comes the question of is my data safe and secure? Can anyone access it? Cyber security is a topic that concerns so many people. If you think about it the principles are the same for cyber security as physical security. While the tactics are drastically different what we do is similar. You put a lock on your door to your house and you put a password on your information. You install a security system at home and you encrypt your data online. When you apply the same tactics it makes your data and more secure.
Cyberspace is a place that continues to grow and develop. Information is constantly being updated and so are security practices to safeguard it. It is very important to look at the company you are deciding to use and what their security practices are. Do your research and weigh the pros and cons of each provider. Different providers provide different services and finding the one with the best security practices is the way to go to protect your information.
