India’s new data laws are asking companies to localize their data. Not just sensitive data – like names, numbers, and addresses – but also non-sensitive data. BSA, the Software Alliance, which includes tech giants like Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, Intel, and Adobe among others, has launched an international coalition to advocate for the ability to move data across borders. “The trusted, seamless movement of information across borders drives the global economy forward. It supports innovation and job creation,” said Victoria Espinel, president and CEO of BSA.
