By AFP
A leading tech industry group on Tuesday called on G7 nations to harmonize cloud security certification across the world’s richest nations, in an effort to stoke cooperation and counter calls that data should stay within national borders.
Industry group BSA The Software Alliance, which represents tech giants including Microsoft and IBM, argues that its initiative would reduce compliance burdens for cloud service providers while maintaining robust security standards.
"We encourage governments to look at where their cloud requirements are effectively the same, but using different language," said Aaron Cooper, senior vice president of global policy at BSA.
