In addition to meeting every privacy requirement, this will also give our customers more flexibility and control over where and how their data is stored.”įor developers, Bitcasa recently announced its vision for the Bitcasa CloudFS API, which will include regionalized storage and the ability to orchestrate data between cloud service providers. Taptich added, “In the coming months we will also allow customers to explicitly store data in whatever region they choose, regardless of their location. For instance European users’ data will be stored in Europe, and customers in Asia Pacific (APAC) will have their data stored in APAC data centers. With this move, customers will also have the added assurance that their data will be local to them. Unlike competing offerings, Bitcasa’s unique client-side encryption protects data before it leaves the device to ensure that no one (not even Bitcasa) is able to view customers’ data. Other popular services send user data back to the United States to be stored (regardless of where the user is located), which leaves data vulnerable to interception and surveillance.īitcasa is proven in the cloud storage space and provides unmatched security and data privacy. “This also opens up new opportunities for customers that were in the past worried about losing control of their data.”īitcasa is the first popular consumer cloud storage service to keep customer data in their specific region. While our user-controlled encryption ensures data is secure, keeping data within the region of the customer further reinforces our commitment to privacy,” says Brian Taptich, CEO of Bitcasa. “Data privacy has become a concern for many cloud storage users in recent years. Additionally, it can help users dealing with sensitive data avoid legal issues associated with data residency, which can be particularly important for industries where there is a high level of regulation, such as healthcare. For users, storing data locally means faster performance, a greater level of privacy and less risk. SAN FRANCISCO, CA – J// - Gigaom Structure 2014 - Bitcasa, the company that makes cloud storage simple and secure, today announced that its customer data will be stored in the region of each user.
