New Data Security Rules Agreed upon by European Union will Make

UK Hosting Services More Reliable

“With new data privacy and security rules that are expected to be effective by the end of

this year, UK Hosting service providers will be bound to take strict security measures to

ensure data security and maintain their privacy. The rules would block unauthorized

access and illegal use of customers’ data.” Read the whole story here...

If you are looking for web hosting services UK, this news would add to your happiness. The

new data protection laws considered by the European Union empower you to sue your web

hosting providers if they are not able to take care of security of your data. The new rules would

be applicable on 28 member states of European Union. European Commission proposed the

rules 3 years ago.

Now Governments, European Commission, and the European parliament will negotiate to

narrow down their differences, and to give a final shape to this law. European parliament is

expected to approve the new rules by the end of this year. The rules would ensure protection to

privacy of customers’ data and inhibit automated processing of customers’ personal details. If

the rules come into effect by 2016, authorities will be keeping an eye over Internet companies

like Facebook and Google on how they secure the privacy of customers’ data. Companies failing

to adhere by the laws would have to face monetary penalties.

Though various sections of the data protection law are yet to be finalized by European

commission that would define the stringency of the rules; however, one thing is sure that with

these laws European citizens can feel more secure about their privacy.

This is great news for businesses that want to take hosting services from European providers.

Now hosting companies would be bound to provide security to your data and you would have

power to sue the company if they are not taking essential security measures. So, by taking

services of a UK hosting company you would be now free from worries of unauthorized access

of your vital data and their illegal use.
