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?

    Store your own shit on your own Linux server. Don’t trust other companies. Use industry standard libraries like OpenSSH, LUKS.

      But do realise that HeartBleed was in a industry standard library so don’t trust it 100% but do keep it patched as much as possible.

        True. That was a CVE 10 vulnerability. But unless you are going to airgap your system, I think using these ubiquitous libraries is as good as we can get to being safe.

          That is true, which is why you should keep it up to date

      This is only really secure if your server is in a trusted location imo

        I think that’s covered by “Don’t trust other companies”. You just need a business internet line with a static IP to host your own stuff in your house.
