14 December 2017	Anonymizers and VPN services are banned. How can the new rules serve corporate goals? Not that much time is left before the new federal law enters into force known as the law that bans anonymizers and VPN services. This means a ban on using technologies, information systems, and programs that permit users to circumvent blocked websites and gain access to information resources with banned content with restricted access in Russia. Media outlets around the world were quick to compare the series of Russian banks with the Chinese Golden Shield Project, which provides for a system of filtering Internet content and blocking mobile applications and services that offer VPN services, or instructions on how to enter the Internet anonymously.

24 August 2017	EU regulations concerning personal data. Risks and recommendations for Russian businesses The topic of security during the processing of personal data is a high-priority one, both in Russia and abroad. While Russian businesses are becoming accustomed to increased administrative penalties for violating legislation in the area of personal data - under Article 13.11 of the Russian Federation Code of Administrative Offenses – the European Union is getting ready to pass Regulation No. 2016/679 “On protecting individuals while their personal data is being processed, and on the unhindered circulation of that kind of data.” One distinguishing feature of this regulation is its extraterritorial jurisdiction. The fact is that the regulation’s validity applies not only to EU residents, but also to third parties. Large Russian companies are unlikely to ignore the new rules: the penalty for violating them is substantial - up to 20 million Euro or 4% of the company’s worldwide annual turnover for the fiscal year. This article will talk about how the regulation will influence Russian business, how Russian business will get ready for it to be passed, and what the authorities are threatening to do if it is not complied with.

Having no intent to catch up with the rapidly developing digital technology and trying to fight cybercrimes at the same time, the legislators have thus far taken a “prohibitive” approach in the sphere of drafting laws, as well as in law enforcement practices. We will try to show you this using the examples in this article. EZH-Yurist * * I hereby give my consent for the processing of my personal dataAgreement Send

The concept of cloud computing, which appeared in 2006, has thoroughly penetrated into a wide range of IT areas, affecting changes in the approaches adopted by companies to conduct business.
