Cloud storage improves data security for businesses.

Is it true that cloud storage improves data security for businesses?

Partly. Several proposed schemes and a review report that specific encryption, partitioning or AI methods can improve security of data held in cloud storage, while other sources note that cloud storage raises security and confidentiality challenges. None directly measures whether cloud storage improves data security for businesses generally.
