Download or read book Regulating the Cloud written by Christopher S. Yoo and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2015-08-21 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of the cloud as infrastructure: experts from a range of disciplines consider policy issues including reliability, privacy, consumer protection, national security, and copyright. The emergence of cloud computing marks the moment when computing has become, materially and symbolically, infrastructure—a sociotechnical system that is ubiquitous, essential, and foundational. Increasingly integral to the operation of other critical infrastructures, such as transportation, energy, and finance, it functions, in effect, as a meta-infrastructure. As such, the cloud raises a variety of policy and governance issues, among them market regulation, fairness, access, reliability, privacy, national security, and copyright. In this book, experts from a range of disciplines offer their perspectives on these and other concerns. The contributors consider such topics as the economic implications of the cloud's shifting of computing resources from ownership to rental; the capacity of regulation to promote reliability while preserving innovation; the applicability of contract theory to enforce service guarantees; the differing approaches to privacy taken by United States and the European Union in the post-Snowden era; the delocalization or geographic dispersal of the archive; and the cloud-based virtual representations of our body in electronic health data. Contributors Nicholas Bauch, Jean-François Blanchette, Marjory Blumenthal, Sandra Braman, Jonathan Cave, Lothar Determann, Luciana Duranti, Svitlana Kobzar, William Lehr, David Nimmer, Andrea Renda, Neil Robinson, Helen Rebecca Schindler, Joe Weinman, Christopher S.

Download or read book New Technology Big Data and the Law written by Marcelo Corrales and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-04 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection brings together a series of interdisciplinary contributions in the field of Information Technology Law. The topics addressed in this book cover a wide range of theoretical and practical legal issues that have been created by cutting-edge Internet technologies, primarily Big Data, the Internet of Things, and Cloud computing. Consideration is also given to more recent technological breakthroughs that are now used to assist, and — at times — substitute for, human work, such as automation, robots, sensors, and algorithms. The chapters presented in this edition address these issues from the perspective of different legal backgrounds. The first part of the book discusses some of the shortcomings that have prompted legislators to carry out reforms with regard to privacy, data protection, and data security. Notably, some of the complexities and salient points with regard to the new European General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) and the new amendments to the Japan’s Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) have been scrutinized. The second part looks at the vital role of Internet intermediaries (or brokers) for the proper functioning of the globalized electronic market and innovation technologies in general. The third part examines an electronic approach to evidence with an evaluation of how these technologies affect civil and criminal investigations. The authors also explore issues that have emerged in e-commerce, such as Bitcoin and its blockchain network effects. The book aims to explain, systemize and solve some of the lingering legal questions created by the disruptive technological change that characterizes the early twenty-first century.

Book excerpt: In the United States the healthcare vertical, the integrity, privacy, and security of medical and health records are regulatory agencies prime directive. In the European technology space, personal privacy and data security are major factors that drive of cloud computing. This book will make plain the legislative spirit behind the enforcement of the regulations, policies, codes, rules, and standards. Very few people are aware that in the regulated space computing technology design, development, testing, and management are governed by laws, regulations, guidance, standards and funding priorities. This book will make plain how governmental agencies help promulgate policies that aid in the acceptance of Cloud and Computerized systems and It will help you understand how the mismanagement of personal, private and confidential information in corporations and small offices could lead to court disputes, penalties, debarment, and imprisonment. Regulatory Agencies have developed a set of expectations for companies who develop and operate computer systems in regulated spaces. Understanding how these policies are promulgated help will uncover the IT requirements that drive industry activities. The federal government is not in the business of developing new technologies, but they are in the business of facilitating them. If you are planning to use computer-based products and services in a regulated industry or would like to gain a better grasp on how IT policies are promulgated, then I strongly suggest you read this book. Even though various agencies may echo similar definitions, it is important to understand those small distinctions governing each regulatory framework. You will come to understand the stakeholders and policy shakers who provide funding and drive public policy towards the acceptance of cloud and computer networks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cloud computing in both the now and the future of information technology (IT). The benefits of low-cost, unlimited, utility-like service is just too compelling to be ignored by organizations located anywhere in the world. But there are legal, business, and technical risks. This new book, Cloud Computing for Lawyers and Executives - A Global Approach demystifies cloud computing for those involved in seeking out, assessing, negotiating and approving cloud computing services agreements. With summaries written for executives ("Executive Takeaways") and in-depth risk and legal explanations and analysis for lawyers, this book simultaneously speaks to both audiences. This includes leaders and lawyers inside corporations and government and those that advise them. After introducing cloud computing by addressing the questions of what, why and when to use cloud computing and a financial analysis, the book then covers the laws around the world that use of cloud computing will implicate. It then spends the next two chapters on identifying the information security and privacy risks of cloud computing and the response to those risks. Response includes utilizing control frameworks, cloud standards, and audit and assessment methodologies. The next chapter discusses the preservation and breach of data in the cloud, including how litigation and investigation issues such as e-discovery and data breach differ in the cloud. Then next two chapters cover negotiation of the cloud services agreement. Adding to all of the risks presented in the prior chapters are additional legal risks. Examples of provisions from five cloud computing services contracts with leading providers are then highlighted. This is followed by a comprehensive explanation of a methodology to use in these negotiations, which is applied to two typical organizations, a multinational organization and a domestic small and medium sized business. Up to date through May 2011, the book closes with a chapter on legal ethics, the issues specific to consumer use of the cloud and the steps to take to prepare for cloud computing. There is an appendix listing the organizations involved in setting cloud computing standards. To maintain its global viewpoint, examples are used from around the world, international standards are discussed, and the statutes and rules explain the law from more than fifty (50) countries.
