Problem with cloud encryption is, when you need share files. For example I use OneDrive for send photographs/videos for my clients. But with encryption, I cannot send them anything.

Well... 99% clients wont install thirdparty software to decrypt shared files.



If you're willing to use SaaS services (as you're mentioned OneDrive already), there are proper E2EE providers where you can work together and share files. Although I am not sure real time collaboration (such as Google Docs or Office online) is feasible with end-to-end encryption yet.


OneDrive is cheapest 1TB cloud storage I can get. I don't care about realtime colaboration, ony sharing files here and there, but having them encrypted on cloud.

Are you sure? I'm scared for traffic costs on data that sometimes I would need rapid access.

B2 1TB/storage/month ~ $5 250GiB/traffic/month ~$2,5

On OneDrive 1TB/storage/month ~ $7 (home user, there's cheaper enterprise plans) 250GiB/traffic/month $0


1TB OneDrive in familly plan is 2 USD/month + office 365.
