    Cloud computing - storing data and applications remotely rather than on your own premises - can cut IT costs dramatically and speed up your operations.

    But is it safe?

    Despite the rise of public cloud platforms offered by the likes of Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, less than 10% of the world's data is currently stored in the cloud.

    So what's holding many companies back?

    Technology of Business explores the issue of cloud security.

    Besides the safety of data you also need bandwidth - to transfer & access the data.

    It may not be an issue in the developed world but in developing parts, like India, its a big big issue. The data caps are idiotic & internet access is neither reliable nor exactly cheap.
