What is the Cloud?
• Benefits– Access your data from anywhere and across devices– Easy to share large files with friends– Backed up in case you lose your local copy
Your data stored in a server farm, not your personal computer

What is the Cloud?
• Drawbacks– Your data is on a machine besides the device you own– Poor security (for the data host or on your part) could impact your data
Your data stored in a server farm, not your personal computer
