Experts have raised concerns over the security of "cloud" storage sites following the leak of intimate pictures of celebrities.

在女星私密(intimate)照片流出(leak)事件後，專家提出了對於雲端儲存網站(cloud storage site) 的疑慮(raise concerns 提出疑慮)

It is understood some of the images were obtained from services such as Apple iCloud that back up content from devices on to the internet.

據了解這些照片是由像是Apple iCloud這樣的雲端服務網站取得。這些網站提供的是從行動裝置(device)經由網路備份(back up)到雲端的服務。

"It is important for celebrities and the general public to remember that images and data no longer just reside on the device that captured it," said Ken Westin, security analyst at Tripwire.

專家指出，不論是名人或ㄧ般大眾都必須切記照片不再只會儲存在原本的裝置中(而是會被備份至雲端)。

reside 長期居住、停留。此指儲存

capture 捕捉、拍攝

"Although many cloud providers may encrypt the data communications between the device and the cloud, it does not mean that the image and data is encrypted when the data is at rest.

雖然多數的雲端供應者雖會在裝置與雲端的數據傳輸上加密(encrypt)，但不意謂傳輸完畢後的影像和資料也有加密。

at rest 停止動作、動作完畢。此指已傳輸完畢、儲存在雲端上的影像
