Business without risks: why companies, startups and freelancers choose decentralized clouds
Have you ever thought about what could happen to your business if important data were to leak or become inaccessible? Imagine you’re a startup owner, managing freelance projects or running a small business. You have unique ideas, a client base and important documents. Now imagine that one failure or cloud leak destroys everything you’ve built.
Does it seem unlikely? The facts say otherwise. In 2023, hackers stole sensitive data from MOVEit Transfer, a service used by large companies, including British Airways, BBC and even UK government departments. As a result, 2,000 organizations were affected, and more than 62 million files were exposed on the darknet. How many businesses do you think recovered from such a blow?
Centralized clouds: convenience or risk?
Most companies rely on centralized cloud storage, like Google Drive, Dropbox or Amazon Web Services. They’re convenient, understandable and seem reliable. But have you ever thought about who really controls your files? What if the service gets hacked tomorrow or just goes down?
Remember the 2021 Amazon Web Services outage? The largest cloud provider went down for 7 hours, and thousands of companies lost access to their data. Uber, Disney+, Tinder, banks — they all faced paralysis. Now imagine your business depends on a centralized cloud. Are you ready for that scenario?
What risks do centralized clouds hide?
⚠️ Data leaks. The more data in one place, the more attractive it is to hackers. If a large cloud provider is hacked, all its customers are at risk.
⚠️ Failures and loss of access. One technical failure could leave your business without critical files for hours or even days.
⚠️ Lack of control. You entrust your data to a third party, hoping it won’t be used for advertising or analytics. But is that really the case?
⚠️ Commercialization of information. Many cloud services analyze user data and may use it for their own purposes.
Doesn’t your business deserve better protection? Should such risks be the norm?
Decentralization: the new level of security
Fortunately, technology doesn’t stand still, and businesses are already looking for alternatives to centralized clouds. Decentralized storage, like DexCloud, offers a new standard of data protection.
How does it work?
🔹 Files are distributed across the network. Information isn’t stored in one place but spread across independent nodes. This eliminates a single point of failure.
🔹 You decide who gets access. Your data remains under your control, not managed by third-party companies.
🔹 Complete confidentiality. No one can analyze or use your files without your knowledge. 🔹 24/7 availability. Even if part of the network goes down, your information remains accessible.
The future belongs to secure solutions
Companies understand that traditional clouds don’t provide adequate protection. That’s why even giants like Amazon and Microsoft are testing decentralized technologies. If they’re looking for alternatives, shouldn’t every business be considering it too? The world is changing, and you have a choice: keep trusting centralized services that have let users down multiple times or choose a secure future with DexCloud.
Choose freedom. Choose control. Choose security!
