Sistema de respaldo de datos utilizando cloud computing para el mejoramiento de la seguridad de la plataforma virtual moodle en la Unidad Educativa del Milenio Intercultural Bilingüe “Chibuleo”.

Abstract

Technological advancements have led to a significant increase in the use of educational platforms in both the corporate and educational sectors. However, this growth poses the risk of sensitive information loss or theft Taking this reality into considerat ion, the objective of this research is to deploy a data backup system utilizing C loud C omputing in order to enhance the security of information on the virtual Moodle platform. To accomplish this, an investigation and analysis of cloud storage services have been undertaken, with consideration given to compatibility with the Moodle hosting server For the investigation, three cloud storage services were considered: Mega, Drive, and OneDrive. These services offer numerous benefits and operate under the Softwar e as a Service (SaaS) model. After conducting an analysis of each service, the decision was made to utilize the Mega cloud storage service due to its superior flexibility in establishing a connection with the server via console. Once the connection was est ablished, pre structured scripts were implemented to automate the process of backing up data outside of the server. These backups are stored in a cloud storage space, providing protection against information loss, misuse, theft, unauthorized modifications, and enhancing the ability to restore the service in the event of a security incident
