Do you worry about losing control and ownership of your documents or pictures when you store them on the Internet?  Well, many people feel the same way. When storing your data into the cloud, perhaps you are concerned if it is being securely stored or if you can access or delete your data whenever you like? While this may cause concern for private customers, it is even more critical when such matters pertain to corporate customers and their essential business sensitive company data. For both audiences, the ability to find good answers to these questions is challenging and time consuming.

Who can see your data?

“Cloud computing is seen as a major shift in how computing resources are consumed, both by individuals and businesses,” says Astrid Undheim, VP of Next Generation Services in Telenor Research. “Despite benefits, such as lower costs and practicality, many customers are voicing concerns about how security and privacy are handled in the cloud. The PRISM scandal, for example, demonstrates how difficult it can be to know to what extent our data is being monitored, whether it is for legitimate or illegitimate reasons and usage.”
