Cloud Storage: Great for Access, Not Backups! 

Think your online storage keeps your photos & files safe? Think again!

Fear of data loss is a constant worry. While cloud storage offers convenience, it’s not a foolproof solution for protecting your valuable files. Security breaches, sync errors, and accidental deletions can lead to catastrophic consequences.
