Challenges with Google Drive

aws-storage
  • No Privacy

    Google has access to user data, allowing them to see and analyze the content stored on their platform. Customer data is utilized for targeted advertising purposes.

  • Limited Security

    Centralized storage solutions like Google Drive are more prone to data breaches, hacks, and outages.

  • Content Censorship

    Users risk having their content censored by Google, as this has occurred in the past.

  • No Server Choice

    Users cannot select specific servers or locations for their data, limiting control over where and how their data is stored.

Security

Vulnerability

Centralized architecture, data stored in owned and operated servers

Distributed architecture, data fragmented across servers with distributed keys in geolocation of choice

Single server breach impacts only one fragment, assuring data availability, integrity and performance

Server Ownership & Control

All servers owned and operated by Google

Mix of providers, including user-owned servers

Private Cloud Option

No option, centralized public cloud services

  • Eco-Friendly Storage

    Vult’s efficient storage model not only protects your data but also reduces your carbon footprint by optimizing space and energy usage across distributed servers.

  • Google Drive keeps users in the dark about data storage locations and operates with a higher carbon footprint due to its centralized servers.
