CSC has a long history of being a capable managed service provider, with sophisticated  and technologically savvy customers.

We’re all wrestling with how we build a bridge to this new model of cloud computing that’s so intriguing. We’ve discovered the thing that stops enterprises from plunging into the cloud in many cases is transparency.

To respond to this, we’re developing the CloudTrust Protocol. This comprises the evidence, the access controls and the assurance that enterprises are used to seeing in their data management services, and brings it into the cloud.

Not all clouds are the same, but we know that elements of transparency are important to all enterprises. We can give customers a choice, provided through a variety of Trusted Cloud Services.

The cloud is wonderful at delivering agility and efficiency, but we know with the CloudTrust Protocol we can bring new enterprise value beyond that. We like our role as Orchestrators, and believe it’s the step we need to move into the new era of information technology.
