This is of particular interest to me right at this moment, because I'm in a meeting, and one of our exec has mentioned our files directory. Our site is hosted by Google, and our files are, of course, on Google Docs. ( www.ismsug.org , in case anyone is interested.) However, I've got to say that the only thing that surprises me about "Inspectorate states that the EU-US Safe Harbor agreement does not adequately guarantee data protection in the face of the US Patriot Act. The Patriot Act gives the US government the right and ability to demand personal data on any person anywhere in the world if that data is held anywhere in the world by a US company - such as Google" is that it has taken so long for someone to object. My home province passed legislation a few years back stating that no American company, or company that stores data in the US, can bid on medical info systems. For exactly this reason. ====================== rsl...@computercrime.org sl...@victoria.tc.ca rsl...@vcn.bc.ca "If you do buy a computer, don't turn it on." - Richards' 2nd Law ============= for back issues: [Base URL] site http://victoria.tc.ca/techrev/ CISSP refs: [Base URL]mnbksccd.htm Security Dict.: [Base URL]secgloss.htm Book reviews: [Base URL]mnbk.htm [Base URL]review.htm Partial/recent: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/techbooks/ Review mailing list: send mail to techbooks-subscr...@egroups.com http://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/author/p1/ http://blog.isc2.org/isc2_blog/slade/index.html http://twitter.com/rslade _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
