Developing a cloud storage strategy is moving to the top of many IT managers project lists. Most business grade cloud storage offerings leverage a hybrid model where an appliance is installed locally to act as a cache to the cloud.

The chance of you having encrypted data that is stored in the cloud being compromised is less likely than having data within your data center compromised where most data is not encrypted.”]
