Cloud Security Alliance contributes to the European Commission Strategy on Cloud Computing

Cloud Security Alliance contributes to the European Commission Strategy on Cloud Computing

Crete, Greece – Nov 29, 2011 – While cloud computing represents the advent of a global computing utility that transcends national boundaries, we believe a number of positive actions can promote EU interests and protect its citizens, while leveraging cloud computing’s benefits to its fullest.

The Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) proposed, through this paper, its contribution to the European Commission strategy for cloud computing, by suggesting short and medium term actions that support a secure adoption of cloud computing across the EU. The actions we proposed refer to the particular areas of:
  1. Interoperability and portability
  2. Trust, security and assurance
  3. Security innovation in the cloud
Our proposals should be understood in the context of the CSA focus on security, assurance and compliance. You can view the document in it’s entirety by downloading it from the table below.
