New European Guidelines to Address Cloud Computing
The European Commission’s panel on privacy is expected to endorse the concept of cloud computing as legal under the continent’s privacy law today, and is likely to recommend that large companies and organizations police themselves to assure users that personal information kept in remote locations is protected, according to an article from The New York Times.
The panel, known as the Article 29 Working Party, would present the recommendation as part of its long-awaited guidelines on cloud computing, an industry that has sparked much interest in European nations, despite a variety of concerns from the different countries.
