A new EU draft Cybersecurity Certification Scheme for Cloud Services will be reviewed by the European Cybersecurity Certification Group, Euractiv reports. The review will take place at the upcoming European Union Agency for Cybersecurity Conference 26 May. The new draft "maintains the sovereignty requirements to provide some guarantees about the independence from non-EU law." The proposal creates a new subcategory under the EU Cybersecurity Act, "high+," which requires cloud services be "operated only by companies based in the EU, with no entity from outside the EU having effective control over the (cloud service provider)."
