The Business Software Alliance (BSA) has provided an answer to the European Commission’s Public Consultation on the Cloud and AI Development Act, as well as to the Call for Evidence for an Impact Assessment on the same proposal. BSA’s arguments are aimed at addressing the sovereignty aspects of the public consultation, which are also mentioned in the third category of objectives stated in the Call for Evidence, namely the one to “ensure that a set of narrowly defined highly critical use cases can be operated using highly secure EU-based cloud capacity, while creating the conditions for the EU cloud industry to develop secure processing capabilities to serve the needs of these highly critical use cases”.
