Repost for Kathy Cardoza: Well, Sam, anything is possible I guess. I'm not sure how those facilities get hacked but encryption is always better to have than not. Remember that first they have to get past the encryption. Then they would need to have a program to open your file. Personally,I don't put certain facts such as Social Security numbers in my database. Also, I would venture to guess that government and bank sites are a much more appealing target than your genealogy files are. :)
I am careful and try to always be safe. In this world, you have to. But cloud computing is about as safe as it can possibly be. If you worried excessively about every little possibility, you would never do online banking, buy anything with credit or debit online, or give your credit card to a waiter at a restaurant.
