ENISA organized together with Cloud Security Alliance and Fraunhofer FOKUS the largest EU Cloud security conference, Secure Cloud 2016. At its fourth edition, Secure Cloud was hosted on the 24th and 25th of May, in Dublin, the heart of cloud computing.

During the first day important topics discussed focused on the future of cloud security, in the era of IoT. Highlights of the day include the announcement, for the first time, of the French Cloud security framework by ANSSI, and the presentation of the common label for cloud providers produced by ANSSI and BSI Germany.

European Commission also shared its activities on the free flow of data, while the DSPs shared their views on the implementation of the NIS Directive for incidents reporting and baseline security measures, in a panel moderated by ENISA.

On day two, ENISA’s Head of Secure Infrastructures and Services Dr Evangelos Ouzounis, challenged the audience on cloud computing supporting critical sectors, and how is this perceived by the CSPs.  Special focus was placed in the finance sector, with numerous presentations and a panel comprised by financial regulatory authorities, banks and ENISA shedding light on the specific challenges that limit cloud adoption. Standardization, cloud security certification and data protection were among the themes discussed.
