With its own servers in ISO-270001 BSI certified data centers in Germany, luckycloud GmbH offers a highly secure basis for its customers' data right from the start. By transferring data in real time to a geo-redundant backup infrastructure, the Berlin cloud provider can ensure that the servers are always available despite possible system failures or attacks. But what if the government temporarily cuts the power or nationwide blackouts threaten? The luckycloud team is already taking precautions: with separate data centers, diversified providers and networks, and advanced contingency plans. Galactic solutions also play a role.

The cloud service luckycloud focuses on flexibility and security: Freely customizable storage amount, arbitrary folder and NAS synchronization, hosting in Germany and zero-knowledge protection make the service an interesting alternative to the big players. Note: For this test report, we took a closer look at the "Home" and "Teams" rates to reflect private and family or group use.

Data backups are also indispensable for private individuals. At the same time, the risk of sensitive data falling into the wrong hands when using a service without end-to-end encryption is extremely high. The author's conclusion in the ZEIT article: Only end-to-end encrypted cloud services like luckycloud can protect the privacy of users.

The secure collaboration of all locations and a simple backup of all data enables BPM Ingenieurgesellschaft to use a private cloud environment from luckycloud. Luc Mader explains what companies should look for when selecting a provider and migrating to the cloud, in order to enable not only more transparency but also a focus on the essentials.

The pandemic is driving digitization and is a multiplier for CIOs' interest in the cloud, writes com! professional magazine. In this context, the cloud services of the hyperscalers are not the means of choice for SMEs, but innovative solutions from up-and-coming providers. The editors' conclusion: providers such as luckycloud can best map the needs of their customers and the complexity of cloud management at infrastructure level - in the case of luckycloud with client-side encryption and thus particularly secure.

Berlin, 14.09.2021. With its luckycloud hybrid cloud with S3 storage solution, Berlin-based cloud provider luckycloud GmbH now offers its customers an object storage solution that supports them in backing up large volumes of data in a scalable environment. At the same time, the storage can be expanded almost indefinitely thanks to on-demand cloud resources. As a result, companies not only benefit from low capital costs, but above all meet the highest security requirements. Since the services are distributed across multiple data centers, S3 storage is particularly reliable.

There are now also several cloud storage providers in Germany. The editors of the trade magazine Storage Insider tested cloud providers from Germany. Their conclusion on luckycloud: "The security functions and data protection are almost unrivaled at luckycloud" and: "In general, the storage is extremely extensive and offers numerous functions for individual users and teams. It is definitely worth taking a look at the cloud storage."

After last year's win, the Berlin-based cloud provider luckycloud has again been nominated for the eco Award in the Cloud & Hosting category this year. This is the 19th time that an expert jury has awarded the coveted prize of the Association of the German Internet Industry (eco) - this year at a digital conference on November 26. With its business cloud solution for every size of company, luckycloud pro Enterprise, luckycloud competed in the "Cloud & Hosting" category, which was announced under the motto "Information anytime anywhere".

The Görlitz District Office has commissioned the Berlin cloud provider luckycloud GmbH to introduce the data exchange platform luckycloud pro Enterprise. The platform is designed to enable secure, simple and location-independent data exchange between employees and partners and to significantly reduce the load on e-mail traffic. The introduction of the platform is part of the ongoing "Administration 4.0" program, which includes a further 27 projects. The program aims to put Görlitz's administration on a modern footing and make it fit for the future.

It all started with a university material collection, today Luc Mader is a specialist in storage technology. He even wants to be ahead of Google. A huge corporation is already a customer. The high level of IT security is one of the main reasons why many small and medium-sized companies and Deutsche Bahn entrust their sensitive documents to the secure luckycloud. All servers on which the data is stored are located in Germany.

If you use multiple computers and mobile devices, you need to keep your files up-to-date on all devices. Private clouds as well as cloud services on the Internet with their various functions such as synchronization and online office are helpful here. We present ten cloud storage devices - and add a few more cloud tips on top.

In the past, the public cloud has shown impressive growth rates. The fact that many of these solutions can be set up and used with little administrative effort, are easy to scale and are also affordable. With a private cloud of their own, on the other hand, there is a risk of maintenance effort due to lack of expertise, scaling difficulties and costs. But now it is celebrating a real comeback as a "Hosted Private Cloud" - Luc Mader knows 8 causes.

Cloud computing is one of the key drivers of digitization. Hardly any company with 20 or more employees does without it in its IT infrastructure. In principle, the first step is always to decide between private or public cloud solutions - increasingly often in combination. In recent years, however, the majority of SMEs in particular have preferred the public variant. This was particularly convincing in terms of costs, administration and maintenance. But this cloud variant is currently experiencing a renaissance, especially in the form of a "Hosted Private Cloud".

Berlin, 16.09.2020. With its solution luckycloud pro Enterprise, the Berlin-based cloud provider luckycloud GmbH can now provide customers with a fully automated private cloud solution. It can not only be designed in the company's own corporate design, but also meets the highest security requirements such as the provision of a dedicated server and a multi-client capable system. The cloud can grow successively from eight to over 10,000 users.

Whoever goes into the cloud is responsible for their own security! Luc Mader does not see it that way. Rather, he believes that providers have a duty to play with their cards on the table. With luckycloud, he is well on the way to establishing a cloud counterweight to the data giants of the industry - without backdoors, thought manipulation or data monetization.

The Berlin-based cloud provider luckycloud GmbH and the NAS manufacturer QNAP Systems, Inc. are now working hand in hand to provide secure hybrid cloud solutions. By matching the NAS servers with the cloud solution's synchronization software, the companies offer their customers solutions for fast, intelligent and secure data exchange. With a disaster backup solution, the two companies also address companies that regularly store large amounts of data but do not need to process them. "With QNAP we have found the perfect partner to respond to the growing demand for hybrid cloud solutions," said Luc Mader, founder and CEO of luckycloud.

"The Future of Work" has been discussed by experts for a long time. Companies which, in this context who have already created the basis for flexible working concepts are well off in times of the Corona pandemic. All others are under time and action pressure. Something can quickly go wrong. The dangerous: Particularly sensitive areas such as data protection and data security are at stake. Orientation towards a catalogue of services or questions helps to keep an eye on the most important issues.

If breeders cross species, genera or breeds, a hybrid is created. The goal: The combination of the best characteristics. The creation of a hybrid cloud is similarly motivated in IT, e.g. by combining private and public clouds. But here, too, truly multi-value synergy effects are only created through the best-of-breed approach, i.e. by crossing and perfectly coordinating the best solutions in their area of application.

There is more and more talk of the all-rounder Hybrid Cloud. It is said to combine the best of the different Cloud worlds. But what does this actually mean in concrete terms? When does a Hybrid Cloud really become an all-rounder? And not least: How can the data of both worlds be efficiently connected? To answer questions like these, it is worth taking a brief look at the basic principles of public and private clouds and their advantages and disadvantages.

When it comes to the protection of personal data or other information worthy of protection, organisations, authorities and companies must comply with strict control obligations. Since the majority of cloud services do not meet the increasing protection requirements, it is worth taking a look at so-called operator-safe clouds. They follow a principle that eliminates the majority of all risks through their technical blueprint alone.

The topic of the working world 4.0 is becoming increasingly important. One of the most important levers for this is the cloud. But how do entrepreneurs recognize suitable offers? What technical requirements does a cloud solution have to meet to ensure maximum security? Which functions should it support? And what risks can be associated with cloud solutions? With all these questions, it's worth taking time to read the fine print.

Lack of skilled workers, exchange on a global level, distributed and remote company locations, expensive rents in urban agglomerations, compatibility of family and career - the list of current and future challenges for employers is long, not only in Corona times. The hopes associated with the digital workplace and home office are therefore just as great. Above all, it means a high degree of flexibility with regard to the place of work and the exchange of data.

Digital solutions are now part of everyday life even for many medium-sized companies - whether in production or in administration. However, not everyone finds it easy to implement networked structures for better collaboration. Although the advantages outweigh the risks, security concerns and effort still seem too great. But there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Organisations, authorities and companies must now comply with strict control obligations when it comes to the protection of personal data. But for all those who give information worthy of protection into the hands of strangers, this is not so easy. Here it is worth taking a look at the choice of so-called KRITIS operators, who are obliged to take particularly high protective measures. As a rule, they rely on so-called operator-safe clouds. These follow the zero-knowledge principle, which excludes the majority of all risks through the technical blueprint alone.

The team of the Berlin-based cloud provider luckycloud GmbH has been strengthened since 1 February by Danilo Schwabe, who takes over the position of CTO.

The solution can be implemented as a public, private or hybrid cloud solution and can be flexibly adapted to individual requirements.

Most users lack the security awareness that enables them to assess the risks of using certain services. The most effective protection against data theft and misuse is therefore full data encryption.

The Berlin start-up Luckycloud is committed to competing against the big data octopuses. In the funkschau interview, founder and CEO Luc Mader explains his approach and also talks about classic start-up pitfalls.

Security breaches, data theft, State Trojan. When it comes to dealing with personal or business-critical data, the utmost caution is required. In the context of the current mixture of political and economic interests, the encryption of data in particular offers maximum security. But even there the devil lies in the detail.

In an interview, Luc Mader, founder and CEO of Luckycloud, explains the problems cloud start-ups have to struggle with and how they can prevail against the big data octopuses.

Luc Mader, founder and CEO of luckycloud, explains how his Berlin start-up was founded, what advantages his zero-knowledge cloud promises compared to other cloud providers and why data leaks are impossible with luckycloud.

Security in the cloud can look different depending on the provider. Many factors play a role in guaranteeing secure data storage in the cloud. To illustrate that security in the cloud is not impossible and does not have to be expensive, luckycloud and its recommended security mechanisms are listed as an example of use.

Secure storage space, e-mails, collaboration tools or your own web hosting: luckycloud as a young company offers German and secure cloud services. However, in comparison to other providers, the focus is clearly on data protection and security.

The Basic Data Protection Ordinance (DSGVO) forces providers of cloud services to handle their customers' data responsibly. This includes various principles, of which the three most important will be presented in this article.

When choosing the right cloud service provider, the areas of security and functionality are particularly important. In this article, the most important features will be presented and how current cloud offerings differ.

luckycloud in times of Big Data can be a real alternative to giant companies like Google and Co. In contrast to its major competitors, the cloud provider concentrates on the greatest longing that exists today in the IT sector: Security.

luckycloud sounds like a happy cloud, a safe place to store data. This is exactly what the provider wants to provide its customers, a service which stores and manages data from private individuals as well as corporate customers under the highest security standards.

We all become a bit more mobile every day, only our working environment doesn't seem to adapt to this change at the same pace. With just a few simple steps you can create your own virtual home office. This article shows how this works.

Monitoring and external control over your own data? This is often reality - but not at luckycloud. Since 2007, founder Luc Mader has been working on a solution to ensure secure exchange of data and ideas on the Internet.
