FAQ
Can protected data be uploaded to the cloud?
The Government of Canada defines protected data as follows.
Information is categorized as "Protected A", "Protected B" or "Protected C" when unauthorized disclosure could reasonably be expected to cause injury outside of the national interest:
- Protected A: Applies to information when unauthorized disclosure could reasonably be expected to cause limited or moderate injury outside the national interest, for example, disclosure of an exact salary figure.
- Protected B: Applies to information when unauthorized disclosure could reasonably be expected to cause serious injury outside the national interest, for example, loss of reputation or competitive advantage.
- Protected C: Applies to the very limited amount of information when unauthorized disclosure could reasonably be expected to cause extremely grave injury outside the national interest, for example, loss of life.
Protected A data can be uploaded to the cloud.
Protected B data can be uploaded to cloud solutions meeting stringent security and privacy requirements. RWS is working to meet those requirements and hosting a Trados region in Canada is an important initial step.
Protected C data cannot be uploaded to the cloud.
