ENISA has received the support of the Japanese government’s Agency for the Promotion of Information Technology (IPA) for the dissemination of ENISA’s work on cloud computing in Japan. Thanks to the IPA’s initiative, the reports “Cloud computing: Benefits, risks and recommendations for information security" and the “Risk" and "Assurance" reports are now available in Japanese.
The report authors, Daniele Catteddu and Giles Hogben comment: ‘ENISA is very grateful for this recognition of our work. The fact that IPA translated it gives a chance for the results to reach out to an entirely new ‘market’ of security specialists in Japan. We welcome the increase in EU-Japan cooperation in this field, which is a small step forward, towards better global security cooperation.’
IPA comments: “We sincerely appreciate that ENISA has given us the opportunity to make the Japanese version of the reports and given consent for us to make them publicly available. We believe this result shows the intimate relationship between ENISA and IPA, and leads to further collaboration in the future”.
