Law Glossary
Cloud computing law deals with the legal issues, such as data confidentiality, that occur when business and personal assets are placed on a cloud computing service. Because the IT infrastructure used in the cloud is owned by someone other than the organization collecting the information, issues arise. Cloud computing allows companies to use fewer resources and may involve public, private, and hybrid versions of cloud processing and storage.
