    If the servers are secure and the PII is properly encrypted in the original db then how does it make it any easier to mess up? Would love to hear your expert opinion on this.

      There are laws about how to handle PII and potential criminal charges based on things like the Privacy Act. Meaning there are additional requirements above and beyond how people normally store data on a system.

      More requirements = More chances to mess up

        And you’ve got evidence those laws aren’t being followed? No? There’s nothing that hosting it on a secure cloud server that makes that any easier to “mess up”.
