For those attending the EGI Community Forum next week, this cloud security training (see below) may be of interest. If anyone does attend I would be interested to hear any feedback on it.
On a related note there was an interesting talk at CERN today (http://cseminar.web.cern.ch/cseminar/) on The Cloud Legal Project. It covered legal issues surrounding use of commercial cloud platforms (including liabilities, SLAs, data proaction, security, lock-in, terms, data retention, service changes and IPR) which may be of interest to some of you. I understand the slides will be uploaded in due course.
regards,
Jeremy
