Explanation

In a cloud environment, data protection responsibility is shared between the cloud provider and the customer organization. For transaction-based solutions - which process sensitive data in real time - clearly defining joint data protection responsibilities is the primary consideration because it determines accountability for security controls, breach notification, compliance, and data handling at every layer of the solution. Without this clarity, critical protections can fall through the gaps between provider and customer obligations. SLAs, data protection capabilities, and elasticity are all secondary concerns that must be evaluated within the framework established by joint responsibility agreements.
