⇒ Summary
Write the final version of your summary here.

Cloud computing was born in the fifties, with the first efforts to connect computers, which
was difficult and expensive at first. This technology is used by different people to store their
information, for which they buy storage spaces on the Internet and this information can be
viewed and used from a device connected to the Internet, anywhere. Companies can buy or
rent time to use a network in the cloud. In this network, workers can use all the newer
programs, they can also use cloud computing to store and share their information.

Cloud computing can be very useful, however, it can also have problems; users may have
problems with the security and privacy of their information, because companies that have
networks in the cloud can even claim that they have all the information and one of the main
drawbacks is that there are not many laws to protect people from losing your information.

Among the disadvantages that companies can have companies that use cloud computing, is
that they can run out of your information, because the companies that provide this service
can close or present failures in their technological devices, therefore it is important that
companies and users, who acquire these services, do so with known and reputable
organizations, to avoid security problems and the loss of their information.
