EU Transparency Register
041495920038-44 First registered on 29 Dec 2015
Goals / Remit
CISPE advocates for the creation of the cloud infrastructure single market to harness the power of IaaS and achieve Europe’s ambitious employment and growth goals.
Main EU files targeted
Encourage “cloud first” public procurement policy initiatives with a “comply or explain” requirement when costlier onsite proprietary computing is preferred over cloud infrastructures
Promote coherent EU-wide security requirements and international technical security standards across all Member States
Support IaaS specific cloud privacy requirements, including through a privacy Code of Conduct for Infrastructure providers
Keep the EU cloud infrastructure market open, competitive and free from “lock-in” in single proprietary technologies or services
Ensure that the EU legal framework takes due account of the particular features of IaaS cloud computingAddress
