The shift to cloud computing has reshaped how businesses store and manage data. But under GDPR, companies remain responsible for protecting personal data even when using third-party cloud providers.
Key GDPR Issues in the Cloud:
1). Data Controllers vs. Processors – Clear contracts are needed to define roles.
2). Cross-Border Data Transfers – Storing data outside the EU requires compliance with transfer mechanisms.
3). Shared Responsibility – Security is a joint obligation between provider and client.
Best Practices:
1). Choose GDPR-compliant cloud providers.
2). Encrypt data at rest and in transit.
3). Implement access controls and monitoring.
4). Review and update Data Processing Agreements (DPAs).
By applying these measures, organizations can harness the power of the cloud while staying compliant.
