Description: Regulatory compliance refers to adherence to established laws and regulations governing the use of technologies and data management. In the cloud context, this means organizations must ensure their cloud services comply with regulations such as GDPR in Europe or HIPAA in the United States, which protect data privacy and security. Furthermore, in the realm of the Internet of Things (IoT), compliance focuses on ensuring connected devices operate within legal boundaries, particularly regarding information security and personal data protection. The importance of compliance lies in the need to mitigate legal and financial risks, as well as in building trust with users. Organizations that fail to comply with these regulations may face severe penalties, in addition to damage to their reputation. Therefore, establishing appropriate policies and procedures for regulatory compliance is essential for any organization operating in these technological environments.
