Encrypted data cannot be accessed in a readable format without authorization, even if it is intercepted while transferring online. So, this helps maintain the authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality of information.
In many cloud applications such as GCP, Office 365, and Salesforce, data is created in the cloud and then duplicated to the backup service. While cloud backup providers implement security measures to protect the physical servers, there remains a potential vulnerability during the data transfer.
