Gigastone iPhone Flash Drives Can Protect iPhone and iPad Data

Gigastone Corporation announced its Apple iOS flash drives and Micro SD card readers, available for purchase at big-box stores and online, can be used to secure personal data from online hackers and DDoS attacks.

iPhone and iPad users may be afraid their data is not secure, after the proliferation of hacking attacks in the last few months. On October 22, 2016 Dyn, a company that routes internet traffic sustained a massive cyber attack which prevented Twitter, Spotify, Netflix, Amazon, Tumblr, Reddit and Paypal users from accessing the sites. This is alarming for the general public who are storing all their information in the cloud. In the event that cloud storage solutions are rendered inaccessible, data cannot be retrieved.

Harold Katz, CMO, Gigastone, commented: “As a result of the limited memory capacity of iPhones and iPads users are already faced with having to store much of their data offline in the cloud. In a situation where the cloud services are not available, their data is no longer accessible. The best way to prevent this would be to backup and store critical information on external memory. Gigastone has the largest range of iOS flash drives, giving Apple iPhone and iPad users the means to backup their devices in the event that their cloud based storage is not available.“
