Peer-to-peer Network Systems can replace personal cloud storage

Jon Crowcroft, a professor at the Walson College at Cambridge University, recently published a study in the Proceedings of the Royal Society, Joen Klauckroft the transfer of personal information from cloud storage to peer-to-peer networks in a cloud era of increasingly insecure private information (Peer-to-peer Bae) More secure. The data storage mode of Peer-to-peer network system is diverse, not only security is more secure, information acquisition will be faster and more convenient, and the overall cost is relatively low.

The network is a huge, decentralized communication system, which is often not regulated by the administration or by the government. Cloud service brings convenience to the user, because of its too concentrated characteristics also make it vulnerable to attack, such as the hacker attacks caused user privacy disclosure.

Peer-to-peer network system is a more dispersed system, which is interwoven with resources from multiple locations in the network. The advantage is that its value grows as the number of users increases, and all the producers of information are also potential consumers. Diversify the way you store information to prevent network vulnerabilities while enhancing the security of your data. In a decentralized system, data is separated in several different locations, and network attackers who want to acquire data face more complex target audiences.

In addition, the total cost of constructing a Peer-to-peer network system is lower than the centralized system because it does not require high-speed buffer memory. For end users, the monthly costs are as low as one pound or even free. Today's fragmented networks are not being used heavily, perhaps because the technology is immature, Klauckroft said. But as technology advances, this decentralized network system will be more attractive.
