Book Description
With the creation and development of computing or electronic-digital data processing in the last century, digital transformation has become part of many processes of organizations and people in their various particular conditions. However, with the advancement of this digital transformation to what is now called “cloud computing,” this transformation has not just grown linearly, but has leaped and advanced to much broader dimensions. This new step began to include more actors and activities in society, even reshaping many boundaries of processes and data allocations or domains. Cloud computing has expanded the possibilities of distributed processing worldwide and the means of relationship between the actors of society. However, it also causes a new geographic matrix and places where the processes are executed and data are stored. How can a person locate oneself on this new map of distributed digital processing? What attitudes are necessary for the actors of society to position themselves in this new scenario? What are the central matrices or parameters of risks and legal, civil, or digital rights to a person’s position in an increasingly digital society? The challenge for each person to relate to an increasingly broad and diverse digital network is growing, leading to the need for individuals to be better informed and prepared. This book offers a comprehensive and singular reflection on this crucial topic, primarily from each individual’s perspective concerning one’s data and digital processes.
