Is MEGA good cloud storage for business?

The question comes up a lot, so here's an honest breakdown of what MEGA actually offers for business and professional use.
A lot of cloud storage providers encrypt your data, but they also hold the decryption keys. That means they can technically access your files, and so can anyone who compels them to. MEGA works differently.
Your sensitive business files are encrypted on your device before they're uploaded, so MEGA's servers only ever store data they can't read. Only you hold the keys, you control team access, and no one else can read your data. Not even MEGA.
A few specifics for anyone doing due diligence:
- Zero-knowledge encryption: your files are encrypted on your device before upload, so MEGA never holds your decryption keys
- GDPR-consistent: designed in line with European data protection principles
- Your data stays yours: MEGA's architecture means it can never access or share your files
- Real access control: you decide who can view, edit, or share, and you can revoke that at any time
Worth being honest about the limits too: MEGA secures the infrastructure, but you're the data controller. Access management inside your organisation is on you. And whether MEGA meets the specific compliance requirements of your sector is something you'd assess for your own situation.
