GDPR-readiness of EU Cloud Code of Conduct wins backing of European data protection authorities
n EU-backed effort to create a regulatory framework that would make it easier for IT buyers to identify and purchase cloud services that are compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has found favour with the European Data Protection Board.
The EU Cloud Code of Conduct is intended to help IT buyers source cloud services from GDPR-compliant providers, and – in turn – speed up adoption of off-premise services across the continent by allaying users’ data protection concerns about using the cloud.
