Welcome to the NET+ Cloud Scorecard Working Groupwiki.
The purpose of this group is to explore how to leverage the standards that have been developed and utilized in the NET+ program to assess and report on compliance of various cloud services. This group is tasked with drafting a white paper to:
explore whether there is a need for such an assessment/badging/scorecard activity
articulate the benefits to the academy and industry of such a program
recommend which compliance and contract areas would be subject to review under such a program and whether there are existing standards to use or whether new standards should be created
ways this process or program could be leveraged in other areas of the research and education community, particularly trust and identity
opportunities to partner with other community organizations to enhance this program (EDUCAUSE, regional networks, global NREN’s, procurement consortia, etc.).
share initial ideas for implementation of this process or program
share additional ideas this group develops during their work
