An evaluation by a working group of German data protection authorities states Microsoft's cloud-based 365 products cannot be used in compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation, TechCrunch reports. After investigating privacy concerns involving Microsoft 365 products for the past two years, the group noted the company has not corrected any of the raised compliance issues. Microsoft said its products "meet the highest industry standards for the protection of privacy and data security." Ireland's Data Protection Commission said it has no open inquiries into the company.
