Unfortunately, services such as OneDrive, Dropbox, and Google Drive will not protect you again accidentally deleted files, modified files, or corrupted files. These services are designed to synchronize files between different systems and the cloud. If a file is deleted on one computer or becomes modified or corrupted on one computer, this will propagate to the cloud and all the other computers.
In 2010, NASA started a competition to have private companies provide crew transportation to the International Space Station. This is supposed to be a competition where the best performer will receive the most business. Based on the history of the contracts and NASA's actions, it's pretty clear that this is not the case.

How many different online accounts do you have? Online banking, e-mail, social websites, etc. Add on to that all of the online shopping sites, and you're probably over 20 at least. How do you remember the passwords? Some people use a single password for every site. That's NOT a good idea. Take a look at the linkedin security breach a few weeks back and you can see why. If you used the same password for LinkedIn that you did for your e-mail, the data thieves now have access to your e-mail, which will pretty much give them access to nearly every account you have.
So what is the solution? You should have a different, hard to guess password for each site. To keep track of these passwords, you should use a password manager.
