Zusammenfassung: | Cloud-based storage services are provided for storing data across multiple devices, where access to the data is subject to a first authentication process. Embodiments are directed to a data protection feature to prevent accidental deletion or modification of the data stored at the cloud via unintended user actions on the clients or actions by nefarious software or hackers. For example, a data protection feature for a portion of data stored at the storage service may be selected, where the feature includes elevation of the first authentication process. An attempted operation performed on the portion of data may be detected. If the attempted operation is deletion or modification of the portion of data, a second authentication process may be prompted to enable the attempted operation to be performed on the portion of data at the storage service. The second authentication process may be elevated compared to the first authentication process. |
