Answer»  Simple Storage Services or S3 is like FTP storage, where users can MOVE FILES to and from there, but don’t mount it like a filesystem. SWS AUTOMATICALLY puts the user snapshots as WELL as AMIs there. Encryption should be considered for sensitive data present in S3 as it’s a proprietary technology developed by Amazon and not yet proven with vis-a-vis a security standpoint.  |
