| dc.description.abstract | The expression "cloud computing", in Italian “nuvola informatica”,
indicates a complex range of technologies that allow, typically in the form
service offered by a provider to the customer, to store, archive and / or
process data, in most cases of a personal nature, thanks to the use of
hardware and software resources distributed and virtualized on line.
Cloud computing services are used in different ways and by
different users: consumers, in general, use them for e-mail, for storing and
sharing content and information of various kinds, for payment services but
also for access to music and video streaming. Companies, however,
employ cloud especially for office basic tools, collaboration and project
management, especially romote, but also for the creation of custom
applications.
If we take account of the breadth of data that are placed on the
network so we can understand how important the issue of their security
and privacy protection for the users of these services is.
First af all, fundamental appears ensure to the consumers a constant
right to the active monitoring of the information entered in the network as
well as a right to their subsequent modification or cancellation, if deemed
appropriate.
These rights are not always guaranteed, or, at least, not always meet,
in the EU and extra EU laws, the same level of protection. [edited by Author] | it_IT |
