Africa’s fragmented data residency rules serve as a challenge to AI and cloud adoption. This session provides learning on measures to remain compliant with local laws, safeguard sensitive data and protect against security breaches, such as:
•Safe and secure migration of data into modern, cloud-based environments
•Implementing measures to remain secure and align with data sovereignty regulations
•Protection of data from security breaches and internal leaks
Learning Outcomes:
➔Evaluate sovereign deployment options: Compare AI deployment options against legal, security and compliance requirements and configure the most suitable approach
➔Establish a data redaction plan: Define processes for identifying sensitive and personal information before feeding data into AI models
➔Assess your business’ sovereign cloud readiness: Ensure that current cloud capabilities align with regional data residency requirements, and define actions needed to establish compliant cloud landing zones
