Data Sovereignty - What’s the Big Fuss About? - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

Panel Discussion The term “data sovereignty” has often been used by stakeholders (including cloud service consumers, cloud service providers, sectoral regulators) to mean different things. Just like the term "cloud computing" in the initial years, there are no widely agreed definitions; so the question "What do you understand by this term ?" naturally arises. Is it about: (a) data residency; (b) data localization; (c) data protection; (d) ... etc. What do these other terms mean anyway? Some parties commented that the above measures are too prescriptive and hide the real motivations, there are indeed innovative solutions to address those motivations. The panel discussion will identify the real motivations for data sovereignty. Some regulated sectors (e.g., finance, healthcare & healthcare) seem most paranoid about data sovereignty; they must have good reasons. Join us as the panelists endeavour to help us to understand the downsides and upsides to data sovereignty.
