Backblaze: a cloud backup solution May 18, 2015

If you are primarily interested in using a cloud storage service for backup purposes, your best choice at this point might be Backblaze. I have been using it for about 8 months now and I am very happy with this continuous (rather than manual or scheduled) backup solution.

Backup All Data

If you are primarily interested in using a cloud storage service for backup purposes, your best choice at this point might be Backblaze. I have been using it for about 8 months now and I am very happy with this continuous (rather than manual or scheduled) backup solution.

Backup All Data
There is no need to pick folders and files. Backblaze is the only cloud backup solution that backs up all your photos, movies, music and documents automatically. Of course you can also pick what not to backup in Backblaze Settings. Any deleted files will be retained for 30 days.

Unlimited Cloud Backup
Backblaze is the unlimited company - unlimited data, unlimited file size, unlimited file types, unlimited external drives, unlimited bandwidth. Yes, it's really unlimited.

Backblaze is $5/month per computer. You can also get a discount by buying a year for $50 ($10 off) or two-year for $95 ($25 off).

Take some time to learn what Tresorit people have to offer May 18, 2015

We offered $50,000 if someone hacks our system. 1000 hackers from 49 countries tried, but no one succeeded.


Let's suppose somebody tried & succeeded. Would that fact have been published?


I believe a successful hacker would be the first to start bragging about his or her accomplishment.

And BTW, what about non-hackers like software developers, employees, Evil Maids, Romeo agents, NSA-like organisations, ...


https://tresorit.com/security

Tresorit's client-side encryption technology secures your files on your device with some of the highest grade encryption methods available and your files can’t be decrypted in the cloud. This makes them safer than “safe”. No one else has the decryption key, not even Tresorit administrators. Only you and those who you share with have access.

Tresorit sends files to the server with TLS, the successor to SSL. In addition to that, by using client side encryption first, your data enjoys another level of security, preventing even the slightest chance of spying on files during transfer.

By using Tresorit, your files remain encrypted, so no one, not even Tresorit staff, is able to decrypt your files to see, steal, or modify them.

Naturally, we take our core security very seriously, but even if it were to fail, your data would still be safe since all anyone can see on the servers is random bits of data.

We also free ourselves from the hassle, and you from the risk, of local government entities requesting access to your data. We simply have no possible way to open our clients data for government examination.
At Tresorit, your security comes first.

Still off-topic May 18, 2015

Incidentally, you’re the one who started your usual Luddite scaremongering, and veered off-topic, not me. The OP asked for "Alternatives to Dropbox?", not irrational reasons to fear technology. How bout starting your own thread aimed at warning us all of the awful dangers of "The Cloud" [said with spooky ghoul voice].

Off-topic.
