Dropbox is a well-known cloud file storage platform.

The service enables you to access your content from any location provided that you log in with the correct credentials.

This shall incorporate one more level of security for your sites since you will always have a copy of any info that you may need and if the app is installed on your computer, a copy will be available not just on their hosting servers, but also in a folder on your end.
