BSA filed comments to the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy (MOTIE) on potential reforms to the Cloud Security Assurance Program (CSAP). BSA cautioned that restructuring CSAP as “voluntary” without removing existing requirements could perpetuate market access barriers and create de facto mandatory obligations. BSA recommended eliminating unnecessary localization and duplicative requirements, expanding Low-tier classifications, and recognizing internationally accredited certifications to ensure genuine market-opening reform.
