Internxt S3, like AWS S3 but private

Complex security configuration

Securing AWS requires managing multiple layers of settings, including firewalls, encryption keys, and permissions. Improperly set permissions, mismanaged keys, or overlooked network policies can leave data exposed. Users must constantly monitor and adjust settings to maintain security.

High costs at scale

Using AWS at high volumes can become expensive quickly. Pricing for storage, network transfer, and extra services accumulates over time. Scaling without careful planning can lead to unexpected expenses, making long-term financial planning difficult.

Employee access to your data

AWS employees and contractors may access user data for maintenance or compliance. Even though access is controlled, there is always a risk of unintended exposure. Sensitive files are technically accessible to others, which may concern privacy-conscious individuals or organizations.

Integration with Amazon’s ecosystem

Integration with other Amazon services means information about user behavior, storage habits, and app usage can be collected and combined. Users concerned with privacy may find it difficult to limit tracking or prevent their data from being used in multiple contexts.
