Synopsis
Data transfer between the EU and the US has become commonplace through the use of US based cloud services. However, the Schrems II judgment has crystallised the compliance risks around the privacy of personal data highlighting the differences in the rules between jurisdictions. The consequences of this judgement are still being played out and have the potential to be very disruptive. The European Data Protection Board recommendations are that contractual clauses are not sufficient and require supplementary technical measures to be implemented. This presentation discusses these technical measures and the growth of interest in the sovereign cloud.
After attending this presentation, you will be able to:
- Explain the Schrems II judgment on the privacy of personal data held outside of Europe.
- List the European Data Protection Board recommendations for compliant processing.
- Describe four key areas cloud sovereignty.
- Compare how the technical approaches to confidential computing meet the EDPB requirements.
