Of these three, iCloud, Outlook/OneDrive, Google, which do you believe to be the most secure?

I am looking to use one provider for email, photos, docs… all storage and services to one provider.

I use Apple hardware 99% of the time so iCloud makes sense but if OneDrive or Google is known to be more secure, I’m willing to use one of those as well. Not worried about cost.

If you were all in on one email and cloud service which would you recommend?

1. iCloud
2. Outlook/OneDrive
3. Google

Dropbox. Works without hassle on most platforms and devices. For mail I use them (your examples) all.

Define "secure".
All of them are secure, but not private.

Which gives me the least chance of having my identity stolen, my data stolen, hacked, etc? I suppose that is what I am asking.

I would stick with Apple, especially since you use it 99% of the time. With 2FA turned on, it is very secure.
