Systems and methods for securely storing data for efficient access by cloud-based computing instances is provided. In one or more examples, a computing hub can receive one or more access requests to data stored within a persistent data storage computing resources that in connected to the computing hub. The computing hub can be configured to determine if the access request is from an authorized computing resource, and can then generate one or more tokens that provide access to the computing resource. The one or more tokens can include information regarding the IP address of the requesting cloud-based computing resource, and each time that the cloud-based computing resource uses the token to request access to the stored data, the computing hub can check the IP address of the computing resource against the IP address indicated on the token to decide whether or not to grant access to the data.
