English term or phrase: losing it in somebody else's environment
Len Johnson, Senior Vice President and IT infrastructure Manager at RBS North America, agrees. "The biggest concern we have with the cloud right now is security. In a private cloud environment I think security is pretty good, but it is the public cloud sphere where we still face issues," says Johnson. "Losing data is always a major concern, but losing data across the cloud landscape means ***losing it in somebody else's environment***, which is completely unthinkable for people working in the financial sector."
但是在云环境下丢失数据意味着在别人的环境下丢失数据?

Chinese translation:在公共环境中丢失
Explanation:
losing data across the cloud landscape means losing it in somebody else's environment, which is completely unthinkable for people working in the financial sector. -> 在云网络中丢失数据等同于在公共环境中丢失数据,这对金融界工作者来说实在是不可思议。

Explanation:
You can think of this as a private v.s. public network environment. Somebody else's environment is not owned by you, so it's not your private environment, but the public environment.

Cloud landscape is referring to the cloud network or the cloud, which operates similarly to the internet.

Hope this helps.

Please note that they are concerned about security in the public cloud. Losing data in a public domain is certain insecure because they have no control over it. Just my 2 cents.

Explanation:
You are abosolutely right.
云计算的数据都存储在云上,而不是用户环境中,所以,如果云中的数据丢失了,那所有使用该云的用户自然也会受牵连。
