45 min| English
In order to make the best decision possible, more than just conventional KPIs must be taken into consideration when selecting a cloud service provider. In addition to critical performance values such as throughput and scalability, an essential role is also played by compliance.
Listen as Spencer Izard, from the IT consulting firm PAC, discusses the importance of trust with Christoph Tockner, CEO of the health tech start-up Novid20, and Sören Schulte, Product Marketing Manager at Retarus. Their conversation focuses on how Novid20 managed the rapid deployment of COVID-19 school testing services and underlines how the secure handling and delivery of messages was pivotal to the project’s success.

In a World of Mistrust, Trust Becomes an Important Asset
Although the digital world has brought many great benefits, it also raised issues such as lack of compliance, lack of security measures, and questionable legal frameworks. And where personal data is processed and highly sensitive messages are sent using the cloud, further questions arise – such as where the provider is headquartered, the location of its data centers, who operates them, and with which security measures? Are they certified, and can they be audited? And what services are contractually assured? And what about GDPR and the Cloud Act?
Personal Data, Schools and COVID-19 Test; It Can’t Get More Sensitive Than This
This live talk discusses the importance of trust in the digital world, looking at the example of an innovative healthcare technology firm needing to build trust instantly to deliver a vital COVID-19 testing program. This project was a prototype for government bodies, healthcare providers, and private organizations seeking to meet the growing demand for rapid deployment of a digital solution. One special area of focus was time-sensitive communication with parents and schools via e-mail and SMS.
