What is cloud computing?

• Cloud computing means that your computer is stored remotely

• Cloud computing is the provision of computing services over the internet. These services are accessed by the user locally on the hard drive of the user's computer

• Cloud computing is the provision of computing services over the internet. The data and applications provided are accessed by the user remotely from the host company's servers.

• remotely on the host company's servers

• remotely on your local computer

• locally on your network

• locally on your remote computer

A cloud computing company (for example AWS and Microsoft Azure) usually provides...

A cloud computing company (for example AWS and Microsoft Azure) usually provides...

• Storage as a service

• Software as a service

• Infrastructure and processing as a service

• Storage, software, processing and infrastructure as a service

Cloud computing services such as storage and software...

• Can be accessed on any device

• Are always free

• Can be accessed by any device that is connected to a LAN

• Can be accessed on any device that is connected to the internet

An advantage of cloud software is that...

• It is always free

• It cannot be hacked

• It is updated automatically

• It is only ever stored locally on your computer

A disadvantage of cloud storage is that..

• Your data will always be hacked because your data can be accessed from any device with an internet connection

• Your data is vulnerable to hacking because your data can be accessed from any device with an internet connection

• Your data can easily be hacked because there is no system security provided by the host

• Your data is vulnerable to hacking because it is stored locally on your computer
