Data privacy in the cloud


For cloud computing, one of the central barriers to adoption is whether cloud services can ensure data privacy, particularly in light of government regulation such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Basel II. For chief information officers and directors of IT, these resources are designed to help weigh the benefits of a cloud architecture and understand the implications for data privacy. Find out about how to integrate with a SaaS (software-as-a-service) application securely and without breaking internal compliance policies. Read up on network security for cloud-based enterprise applications, operating system security for cloud based enterprise applications, data security for cloud based enterprise applications, virtualization security for cloud based enterprise applications and regulatory issues for cloud based enterprise applications in this section. This topic covers security for cloud based applications, Google Apps, identity and access management in the cloud and medical records privacy.
