How do you check where personal information is stored?

Question

Personal Information

Actually the question is how legislators plan to check where personal data is stored? Roughly speaking, you can take a VPS in Russia for $20 and say that all data is stored there.

Answer 1

I believe that when it comes down to it, they will come to the data center to confiscate your servers, and they are empty once and for all)) And then they will write out a fine)))

Answer 2

The RKN, as part of the verification under 242-FZ, will check the existence of an agreement with the data center and indicate the location of the servers in it. This will complete the test in most cases. But the RKN are not stupid, and if your company is large or medium, they can easily guess that you won’t be able to raise your infrastructure on a VPS for $ 20, so they will start digging deeper.
