2.3: Security and Privacy

Incorporate best practices such as data encryption and process standardization.

Other Information:

Security and privacy of information in the cloud is an issue that is of prime importance, since cloud users capture, process, send, and store data outside of organizations’ proprietary infrastructures. Public trust in CEOG activities that use cloud capabilities will quickly erode if it is apparent that information sharing isn’t private and secure. Data security will be key to operating in the cloud, and therefore best practices such as data encryption and process standardization are areas that will need to be incorporated.
