The invention concerns a method of providing a client ( 21, 22, 23, 24 ) transparent access to storage space administrated by a storage service, as well as a client ( 21, 22, 23, 24 ) and a storage system for performing this method. Data are exchanged between the client ( 21, 22, 23, 24 ) and the storage system ( 5 ) providing the storage service via a communication network ( 1 ). A client ( 24 ) invokes the storage service for providing the storage space. The storage space associated with the client ( 24 ) is located within the storage system ( 5 ). A secure connection is established between the client ( 24 ) and a storage device ( 51 ) of the storage system ( 5 ) dedicated to store data assigned to said storage space. Data assigned to the storage space is stored in encrypted form in said storage device ( 51 ).
