NSA revelations 'changing how businesses store sensitive data'

"Survey suggests many firms choosing more secure forms of storage over ‘cloud computing’ in light of Snowden’s disclosures".

The survey of 1,000 information and communications technology decision-makers from France, Germany, Hong Kong, the UK and the US found that, following the Snowden revelations, almost 90% had changed the way they use the cloud – a storage service that allows data to be accessed from anywhere in the world but which is more susceptible to online surveillance.
