How do you ensure privacy and security on cloud platforms in an age of compromised encryption, backdoors, and AI-driven hacking threats to encryption and user confidentiality?

Let’s say you’ve created a film and need to securely upload the master copy to the cloud. You want to encrypt it before uploading to prevent unauthorized access. What program would you use to achieve this?

Now, let’s consider the worst-case scenario: the encryption software itself could have a backdoor, or perhaps you’re worried about AI-driven hacking techniques targeting your encryption.

Additionally, imagine your film is being used to train AI databases or is exposed to potential brute-force attacks while stored in the cloud.

What steps would you take to ensure your content is protected against a wide range of threats and prevent it from being accessed, leaked, or released without your consent?

    That’s the funny thing about data storage: you don’t.

    Encryption mitigates the likelihood of somebody gaining access. But anyone with physical access to the media can potentially gain access to the data - it just may be incredibly difficult to decrypt (or to find a bug that permits decryption).
