The European Union Agency for Network and Information Security (ENISA) published a report which aims to assist Member States and Digital Service Providers (DSPs) in providing a common approach on the security measures for DSPs.

The study describes the high-level security objectives by providing security measures and examples of implementation concerning DSPs and in particular:

  • Cloud computing service providers
