Cloud Storage. With the emergence of cloud computing, the entire approach to the storage and retrieval of data is changing. Cloud storage is an industry term for managed data storage through hosted networks in which data is stored on remote servers, typically accessed from the Internet, referred to as the "cloud." Data storage on the cloud can be maintained, operated and managed by cloud storage service providers (referred to as a public cloud) or in your organization’s internal cloud (called a private cloud).

Asghari et al. [10] propose a systematic approach for providing comparative infection metrics from large-scale noisy sinkhole data of Conficker botnet. In [11], a large dataset of 350 million HTTP request logs is analysed for understanding user behaviour of mobile cloud storage service. Xu et al. [12] report an empirical analysis for extracting and modeling the traffic patterns of 9600 cellular towers deployed in a metropolitan city. Bermudez et al. [13] present a characterisation of Amazon's Web Services (AWS), which reveals that most of the content residing on EC2 and S3 is served by one Amazon data centre located in Virginia. Drago et al. [14] propose a characterisation of Dropbox by means of passive measurements of four vantage points in Europe, collected during 42 consecutive days. In [15], a new framework to enable a macroscopic characterisation of attacks, attack targets, and DDOS protection is proposed. Liu et al. [16] present an analysis of online campus storage systems and data sharing services for more than 19,000 students and 500 student groups. Miao et al. [17] present the large-scale characterisation of inbound attacks towards the cloud and outbound attacks from the cloud using 3 months of NetFlow data in 2013 from a large cloud provider.

There are a variety of PCSSs (such as Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, Mega, iCloud, SkyDrive, etc.) with different free and non-free capacities that users can utilise depending on their needs and budget. According to the existing reports, Dropbox with more than 100 million users is the most popular PCSS (Amrehn et al. 2013). It is a cloud service which enables users to access and update their files from different devices. Files of any type can be stored and shared through Dropbox (Drago et al. 2012). Google Drive is a cloud storage service by which files can be stored, synchronised across different devices, and shared to others. Google Docs, as a kind of Google Drive, works as a cloud repository which can be accessed by any web-connected device. Google Docs users have the ability to share different types of files with others, and edit the shared Microsoft office documents simultaneously (Tornyai and Kertesz 2014).
