11 Best Encrypted Cloud Storage Services in 2026

Encrypted cloud storage falls into two categories. Most services such as Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Box, encrypt your files on their servers and hold the decryption keys, so the company can technically access what you store.

The provider receives data it cannot read, and cannot hand anything over, even under a legal order.

They use phishing to obtain login credentials or to send repeated approval requests. In some cases, they take over sessions by stealing the session token.
