For the true offsite cloud storage experience, you will need to rent server space from a third-party provider. Here you have two options – you can install the server software yourself on server space that you have independently rented, or you can let a Nextcloud partner setup and manage an account for you. Installing Nextcloud on independently rented server space gives you complete control over your cloud server, much as you would have over a self-hosted server. The main benefits over self-hosting are that your data is safe in the event of a fire or burglary at home and that you don’t need to have a computer running at home all the time.

Looking for a Dropbox alternative? Cloud storage isn’t a hard service to come by in recent times. However, some of these platforms come with unseen limitations. For instance, your data is never truly “private” when storing it with a larger platform. Given that companies like Google are rumored to have the authority to access its user’s data, this can raise red flags for many. Albeit when it comes to privacy, it’s not a subject that should be overlooked. The purpose of self-hosted cloud storage is not to prove its superiority, but rather provide a competitive alternative to Dropbox and Google Drive. And within this open source cloud storage solution, a way for users to have more control over their hosted data.

Encryption at rest: Data at rest can be secured using the AES-256 server-side Encryption app, but this has severe limitations. The main problem is that the encryption key is stored alongside the data in the Nextcloud instance, a problem compounded by the fact that when used it is stored in the server’s RAM where it can be accessed by hackers or a hosted server’s operators. This problem is not helped by the fact that Nextcloud’s 30 seconds desktop synchronization schedule is very predictable and therefore provides an easy attack surface for malicious actors. As such, Nextcloud’s server-side encryption is best used to secure external storage accounts which are linked to your Nextcloud instance – such as Google Drive and Dropbox accounts.

Nextcloud gives you access to all your files wherever you are and whatever device you use. The easy web interface allows you to share files with other users on your server, to create and send password protected public links, to let others upload files to your cloud and to get notifications on your phone and desktop when a user on another cloud server shares files directly with you. And you can do all these things from the desktop or mobile clients, too. Nextcloud clients for Android, iOS and desktop systems allow you to sync and share files, in a fully secure way through an encrypted connection. The mobile clients feature automatic upload of pictures and videos you take and can synchronize select files and folders. The clients can handle multiple accounts, show all activity happening on your server and notify you of new events such as the availability of new shares.
