Us and Eu Cloud Computing Policy and Acceptance for Regulated Entities

The federal government is not in the business of developing new technologies, but they are in the business of facilitating them. If you are planning to develop computer-based products and services for regulated industries or would like to gain a better grasp on how IT policies are promulgated, then I strongly suggest you read this book. This book will make plain which government agencies help promulgate policies that aid in the acceptance of Cloud and Computerized systems. This book will help you understand how Cloud computing technology, design, and architecture are facilitated and protected by laws, regulations, and funding priorities. In the United States, the integrity, privacy, and security of medical and health records is a prime directive. In the European Community, personal privacy and data security are major factors that encourage the acceptance of cloud computing. Paying close attention to the spirit of the regulations, policies, codes, rules, and standards is key towards succeeding in the industry. Even though policies, guidance, and interpretations from various agencies may echo similar definitions, it is important to understand those small distinctions governing each complementary framework. This book unveils the stakeholders and policy shakers who provide funding and drive public policy towards the acceptance of cloud and computer networks. Regulatory Agencies have developed a set of expectations for companies who develop and operate computer systems in regulated spaces. Understanding how these policies are promulgated help will uncover the IT requirements that drive industry activities.
