Cloud computing - internet-based delivery of IT services – is a growth industry and many Irish businesses are operating as either cloud providers or cloud clients. This conference, presented in association with UCC’s LLM in Intellectual Property and E Law, will discuss regulation of cloud computing, including questions such as the following:
- What legal issues need to be considered by businesses in contracting for the provision or use of cloud computing services?
- Can an appropriate regulatory balance be struck between cloud provider and cloud client interests?
- What are the legal consequences of security breaches regarding data held in the cloud?
- What are the implications of storage of data in Europe, the USA and other jurisdictions?
- What is the relevance of the EU / US safe harbour arrangements for cloud computing?
- What are the implications of the EU’s draft General Data Protection Regulation?
- Are concerns about the USA’s Patriot Act and Mutual Legal Assistance Treaties in cloud computing justified?
- How are intellectual property law issues dealt with in a cloud environment?
Speakers:
- Professor Ian Walden, Centre for Commercial Law Studies, Queen Mary, University of London and member of the Cloud Legal Project.
- Mr John O'Connor, Head of the Technology and Commercial Contracts Group at Matheson Ormsby Prentice, Solicitors.
