The way people work is changing. The latest technology and advances in cloud computing put powerful tools such as cloud storage in the hands of individuals, small businesses, and large corporations alike.
This is a trend that looks set to continue. In fact, we are moving toward a world where cloud storage is so integrated with our day-to-day routines that working without it will become impossible.
Fortunately, most people are as excited as we are to take advantage of the new opportunities the cloud presents. With the cloud, it is easier than ever to access your files from all your devices, anywhere in the world.
The file you need is always where you need it to be.
At BoxCryptor, we believe the cloud is not just the future of business – it is the foundation of how we will all handle our information. But as more data is offset into the cloud, the same people who are excited about this new technology must understand the security risks it presents.
If all your data is “out there,” how can you confidently work in the cloud without compromising security?
How cloud computing makes our company more agile
Every day, more people take their data into the cloud using platforms like Dropbox, SkyDrive, and Google Drive instead of traditional local storage. At BoxCryptor, we have done the same, making our business more flexible and our information more accessible.
We have seen two major benefits of the cloud:
1. Access from all devices and locations
2. Ease of collaboration
Like most companies with an interest in cloud storage, our team is made up of the type of people that love the latest technology, and excel at using this technology to do better business. While our desktops are switched off, our notebooks, tablets, and smartphones are never out of reach.
Cloud computing puts data on all of these devices, at all times. We are not limited by traditional working hours or accessing local storage. Everything we need is in the cloud, which means everything we need is wherever in the world we are – on any device.
In addition, the cloud makes it possible to collaborate in new ways. The entire team can access files in real time, with updates rolled out the moment they happen. If we are working with the same files, we can always be certain our copy is up to date, whether we are in the office, at home, on the move, or overseas.
This is the promise of the cloud – empowering people to work with information in ways that, until now, were impossible. But without the right security, unlocking this promise requires a significant leap of faith.
Protecting your data in the cloud
When you move your data into the cloud, security is your responsibility. BoxCryptor can help to protect your data, enabling you to confidently adopt innovative new technology without putting your information at risk.
You can trust BoxCryptor to secure information stored in the cloud, leaving you to enjoy the comfort that today’s technology offers without adding to your workload or forcing you to switch to a new cloud service.

Most importantly, BoxCryptor helps you to leverage the power of the cloud with complete peace of mind, knowing your data is safe.
