More than 85% of businesses now take advantage of Cloud computing, but Cloud computing does not sit easily with the DPA. Data Protection and the Cloud addresses that issue, providing an expert introduction to the legal and practical data protection risks involved in using Cloud services. Data Protection and the Cloud highlights the risks an organisation's use of the Cloud might generate, and offers the kind of remedial measures that might be taken to mitigate those risks.
Topics covered include:
Protecting the confidentiality, integrity and accessibility of personal data
Data protection responsibilities
The data controller/data processor relationship
How to choose Cloud providers
Cloud security - including two-factor authentication, data classification and segmentation
The increased vulnerability of data in transit
The problem of BYOD (bring your own device)
Data transfer abroad, US Safe Harbor and EU legislation
Relevant legislation, frameworks and guidance, including:
the EU General Data Protection Regulation
Cloud computing standards
the international information security standard, ISO 27001
the UK Government's Cyber Essentials scheme and security framework
CESG's Cloud security management principles
guidance from the Information Commissioner's Office and the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP)
Mitigate the security risks
Mitigating security risks requires a range of combined measures to be used to provide end-to-end security. Moving to the Cloud does not solve security problems, it just adds another element that must be addressed. Data Protection and the Cloud provides information on how to do so while meeting the DPA's eight principles.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
Please note: We strongly recommend that you authorise using your personal Adobe ID after installation of any reading software.
