I want to backup my business computer, which contains private client financial data to a external hard drive on my home network as a offsite backup. I am considering buying a WD Mycloud so I can connect it directly to my router and not need a PC powered on.
Data transfers over the internet will be secure buy my main concern is, what can I do to protect the data on the drive if it is physically stolen?
I have not researched much but I assume there are encryption programs out there that will encrypt and password protect a drive but If I did that to a NAS drive like this would that not block or erase all of the built-in NAS software?
Thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions.
