CISPE Data Protection Code of Conduct<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MEP Eva Maydell<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe use of cloud infrastructure has become key for any business or public administration that wants to undergo digital transformation. It is crucial that their data is handled securely and in compliance with the GDPR,\u201d commented MEP Eva Maydell. \u201cThis is why, since day one, I supported the CISPE Code of Conduct and I am very glad to see today that their consistent efforts pay off.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul Nemitz, EU Commission, DG Justice<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe CISPE GDPR Code of Conduct for Cloud infrastructure is, alongside  the GAIA-X initiative for a European Cloud System, an encouragement to Cloud Users and Cloud providers to look with self-confidence to the ability of Europe to set up socio-technological systems which work, in line with fundamental rights and the rule of law to ensure that, as a continent, Europe does not become dependent on essential infrastructures being provided by others, which then may also impose their rules on how we live and how we shape our society\u201d said Paul Nemitz, Principal Advisor, European Commission, Directorate-General for Justice and Consumers<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EDF<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOperating across Europe and handling the personal data of European citizens it is imperative that the cloud infrastructure services we use provide the choice to keep data within the European Economic Area, the CISPE code of conduct gives us that assurance. This control over how and where data is processed is a core plank of the whole GAIA-X project with which we are deeply committed.\u201d   Martine Gouriet, Directrice des Usages Num\u00e9riques at EDF<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bureau Veritas<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe strength of any Code of Conduct lies in the auditing of the services that declare under it,\u201d said Paolo Tondi, I&F Italy Sales Manager, Bureau Veritas. \u201cAs a globally recognised audit company Bureau Veritas is completely independent of the code and the businesses declaring services. Therefore, customers can be assured that there are no conflicts of interest and that every service has been fully and comprehensively audited before receiving the declaration of compliance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EY<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEY has a global reputation for independence. We believe that independent monitoring bodies are fundamental to the success of Codes of Conduct and thus critical to effective operation of GDPR. Seeking accreditation as a Monitoring Body for the CISPE code is in complete alignment with our purpose and we will be honoured to play this crucial role.\u201d Jatin Shegal, Managing Director, EY CertifyPoint<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ducati<\/u><\/strong><\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn the manufacturing and motorsport field, we need to collect and process significant amounts of data ensuring the maximum security of these data in terms of resilience and GDPR compliance. As such, it is essential that we have confidence that the cloud infrastructure services we rely upon are also fully compliant. Providers declaring services under the CISPE code give us a further level of guarantee that they provide this vital compliance.\u201d Alessandro Iervolino, DPO & CISO, Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAvec le d\u00e9veloppement des infrastructures de cloud, en plus des questions de performance et d\u2019innovation, le sujet de la confiance prend aujourd\u2019hui une place centrale. Elle se traduit par la n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 de partager et d\u2019appliquer des r\u00e8gles bien comprises, \u00e0 l\u2019image de celles d\u00e9velopp\u00e9es dans le code de conduite propos\u00e9 par CISPE.cloud, et adapt\u00e9es au niveau de sensibilit\u00e9 des syst\u00e8mes d\u2019information et des donn\u00e9es h\u00e9berg\u00e9s. La s\u00e9curit\u00e9 technique, op\u00e9rationnelle mais \u00e9galement juridique doit \u00eatre au centre des d\u00e9marches de certification mises en \u0153uvre tant \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9chelle nationale qu\u2019europ\u00e9enne afin de guider efficacement les b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiaires vers des offres garantissant durablement un d\u00e9veloppement num\u00e9rique de confiance.\u201d Guillaume Poupard CEO ANSSI<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith the development of cloud infrastructures, the matter of trust is now central in addition to issues of performance and innovation. It is reflected in the need to share and apply clear rules, like the ones developed in the code of conduct proposed by CISPE, and adapted to the level of sensitivity of the information systems and hosted data. Technical, operational and legal security must be at the centre of the certification procedures implemented at both national and European level to effectively guide the beneficiary towards offers that guarantee a long-lasting development of trust.\u201d Guillaume Poupard CEO ANSSI<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baker McKenzie<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have played an important role in the development of the CISPE code as legal advisors to the project,\u201d Steve Holmes, Head of London’s Technology and Communications practice at Baker McKenzie commented.  \u201cIt is gratifying to see it as one of the first codes to be approved by the EDPB and believe that it will help many businesses adopt cloud infrastructure services with confidence in their compliance with GDPR.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VMWare<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The sharp focus on IaaS offered by CISPE\u2019s Code of Conduct is hugely valuable to us and to the market,\u201d said Laurent Allard, Strategic Business Development \u2013 EMEA at VMWare. \u201cThere are very important differences between how cloud infrastructure providers and wider cloud service providers treat personal data and it is important to have a Code of Conduct built specifically for the former. We expect many of our partners will declare services under CISPE\u2019s clear, targeted code.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
