# What kind of encryption is used on Google drive to make it more secure?

We all are skeptical about the security of the files we are uploading to the cloud. Is there any specific instructions or details mentioned regarding the security they are using for the drive?

With full plate encryption, the whole limit of the PC's hard drive will be scrambled, including the framework, projects and all information put away on it. After the underlying interaction of scrambling the hard drive has been finished, the client needs to sign in when the PC is first turned on, this is known as pre-boot validation, utilizing a secret key. In the wake of signing in, the PC will work as normal with all accessible information and projects. Notwithstanding, the PC can't be gotten to without a login secret key.
