Services such as Dropbox, which sync a folder on your PC with the cloud and
also with your other devices, have one major drawback. Your files get copied
to the internet, and to someone else's server. So they're not as secure as
they might otherwise be. A new player in the cloud storage/backup market aims
to change all that by bringing some additional layers of security. This
service, like Dropbox, gives you 2 GB of storage for free. If you need more,
you'll have to pay. But unlike Dropbox, they encrypt your information before
it gets copied to the remote servers, so (the company claims) there's no way
that anyone but you can gain access to your files. And as a bonus you can run
use the service to run your own server for free.
