Google Drive Notes
In January 2016 we will begin trials to use google drive as a means for
SCKF to share sensitive files with our dojo members.
- current method
- electronic files (eg membership or other application files)
are emailed, which is not a secure method to share files
- printed materials (eg financial reports, budgets, etc) are
handed out at board meetings, which does not give adequate time for
careful review and discussion
- online access
- public areas (eg web pages) are open for the world to see
- private areas (nonpublic, restricted access cloud storage)
are needed to share sensitive information
- we will go with google drive for the first trials
- 16 GB free storage ($2/mo for 100GB, $10/mo for 1TB)
- each dojo will have its own private folder, with access granted
to dojo representatives
- users must have google accounts
(non-google users can only be given access to public areas)
- see CNET review
(or other reviews) for cloud storage options
- SCKF's runner up: dropbox
- 2.5 GB free ($10/mo for 1TB)
- users must have dropbox accounts for read/write access
- dropbox pro supports private read-only access for non-dropbox users?
- Regardless of the method, dojo representatives are responsible for
protecting the files contained within the sckf_dojo folders. Distribute
them only on a need-to-know basis, and do not post them publicly.
