Choose secure storage solutions for your research data. You want to protect your data and any private information you collect. If you have sensitive data be careful selecting cloud storage.
Storage ≠ Backup
Storage and backup are separate elements of data management that complement each other.
Storage is for your working files that you access regularly. If you lose storage, you'll lose the current versions of your data.
Backup is the regular process of copyright data. You don't need a backup until you lose your data, but it can save your research.
A good combination of storage and backup supports strong data management.
