Cloud Security Summit




I confirm to attend the forthcoming Cloud Security Summit.

As part and parcel of my data protection and privacy research. This will be useful from the context of cloud computing. Currently, I am examining to what extend, and how RFID (being the Internet of Things) may be able to integrate within a cloud computing environment - whether, it only applies in front-end, middleware or bank-end applications. If exists, how shall be the privacy impact assessment applies and how data protection is being controlled. Technology seems to be integrated from one end to the other end, hence, laws, regulations and policies (arguably) should be able to adopt this too.

I hope to be able to secure some insights for such a "legal integration answer"

Keywords in my research:

Data, Privacy, RFID, Cloud Computing, Privacy Impact Assessment and Security.

Cursing the Cloud (or) Controlling the Cloud?


On March 2010, I presented on "Cloud Computing Got Talent! - A Nemesis to Data Protection?". Further to the presentation, I have been developing substantial comments, feedbacks and detailed analysis from various stakeholders. To share these, I will be presenting the Version 2, titled: "Cursing the Cloud (or) Controlling the Cloud?". The abstract is readable here. It could be retrievable HERE. This paper will be presented in the forthcoming Fifth (5th) International Conference on Legal, Security and Privacy Issues in IT at Barcelona, Spain.
