Operators asked to allow the use of data centers outside Russia

In early November, a number of data center providers and major personal data operators appealed to the relevant departments with a request to allow them to temporarily use computing power outside Russia to support the operation of Russian information systems. Thus, companies want to ensure the safety of some data in case of possible attacks on data centers. This was told to Vedomosti by a source in the insurance organization, confirmed by two interlocutors in consulting firms familiar with the discussion of the initiative, as well as a federal official.
