This article is intended primarly for individuals, but also for teams of three or fewer users who prefer not to implement security configurations.
To assist with selecting the appropriate data source, here is a set of concerns and the list of data sources that can serve in such a context.
When choosing a non-on-premises data source, it is important to account for the security of data both at rest and in transit. It is strongly recommended to further encrypt data using a master key for file-based solutions or a security provider for advanced data sources, ensuring that only authorized parties can access the data.
For enhanced security features such as encryption at rest and in transit, restricted database access, and zero-knowledge encryption, consider our enterprise data sources.

The master XML file is managed by a single user and synchronized through Remote Desktop Manager to a website hosted according to specified configurations. Accessing the data via a URL ensures that other users have read-only permissions.
There is no built-in protection against data contention. The data source allows a single user to access the data from multiple devices, but simultaneous access by multiple users is not supported.
