BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Deutsche Telekom, Orange, Airbus and 15 other EU companies have criticised a proposal that would allow Amazon, Alphabet's Google and Microsoft to bid for highly sensitive EU cloud computing contracts.
The draft plan from Belgium, which currently holds the rotating European Union presidency, concerns a certification scheme (EUCS) to vouch for the cybersecurity of cloud services and help governments and companies in the bloc to pick a secure and trusted vendor for their business.
