Gone are the days when only specific people working in ICT departments and cybersecurity practitioners were expected to be aware of regulatory changes that affected the organisations they worked for and their respective professions. Increasingly, individuals and organisations are using the cloud for storing their online information and content, signalling a major shift to using online technologies and for which government regulation has become necessary.

This technological approach to using cloud services enables businesses and individuals to scale, collaborate, and innovate at unprecedented levels, reshaping industries and revolutionising the way we work and live. Various industry estimates show that upwards of 60 percent of business data is now stored in the cloud, while 48 percent of businesses store their most important data in the cloud.
