I'm looking for a solution to store files such as PDFs, .docs, images and videos for entreprise purposes. We're a startup with 15 people who need to access those files in sync all the time. Sometimes from abroad. The solution must incorporate permissions management and if possible encryption. The more secure the better. We also want to be able to backup the data. All for less than 100$ per month.

Which infrastructure would you advice ?

Edit : I edited the question for clarity, by SMB i didn't meant Server Message Block, i meant Small and Midsize Businesses.

Edit 2 : I think i'm going to go with Amazon S3 and expandrive as a client for employees access to files.

What about Sharepoint? For the Enterprise price, it comes with required functionality for business (Outlook, Word, Excel etc.). Check this.

In case you consider to buy SMB boxes, I can suggest checking Synology, QNAP options. For NAS storage I use Synology.

As for backups, buy two boxes. First box run SMB share. Use the second one to store backups. Veeam, Acronis, Symantec are backup software I can suggest to go with to implement a backup plan. For sure, consider 3-2-1 rule and RTO&RPO.

If you will opt for cloud storage, you need to think about encrypt your data before to send it.

I mean that you have to use Cryptomator or others solutions that create a container where you can store your files "safely".

Security and cloud storage is quite oxymoron - your data are not secure if someone out of your company has access to machine with your data. If security is important for you buy some two servers (because of high availability) and use some VPN for accessing from remote locations.
