CA Technologies Signs up to EU – US Privacy Shield
September 28 2016 - 9:30AM
Business Wire
CA Technologies (NASDAQ:CA) today announced it has submitted its
EU-US Privacy Shield self-certification to the US Department of
Commerce. This will ensure that CA Technologies can transfer data
between the EU and US under the Privacy Shield, in addition to
other existing legal mechanisms. CA Technologies was an active
participant in the discussions leading up to the announcement of
the Privacy Shield framework.
International data transfers are crucial in today’s application
economy. “Innovation and data don’t stop at the borders. With the
Internet of Things and other communication-intensive innovations,
our customers need to transfer data on a daily basis as a matter of
necessity,” said Otto Berkes, chief technology officer, CA
Technologies. “An essential component is trust among technology
service providers, customers and regulators. Having legal certainty
and a stable framework for innovation is essential.”
Different mechanisms currently exist under EU law to transfer
data outside of the EU. One such mechanism, Binding Corporate Rules
(BCRs), require robust and extensive internal controls and
procedures, and as a result CA Technologies is one of only a
handful of technology companies that has developed BCRs. “This
further assures our customers that we apply the highest standards
to their data,” according to general counsel Michael Bisignano.
“Legal challenges to the Privacy Shield framework are a
possibility,” says Bisignano. “While other organizations may choose
to delay until there is greater certainty, we strongly believe that
our early investment in the Privacy Shield is the right one. Our
commitment to the Privacy Shield is the best way available to
demonstrate a commitment to protecting our customers’ data and
further promote trust among all constituencies. “
