CSC prohibits the use of its services based on the regulations of the European Union
CSC has decided to restrict the use of its data management and computing services for users from Russian and Belarusian organizations. Those services cannot be accessed by users in Russian or Belarusian organizations. The decision is based on Council Regulations (EU) 2022/328 and (EU) 2022/355 concerning sanctions in view of Russia’s actions in Ukraine.
Furthermore, CSC services cannot be accessed from Russian or Belarusian IP addresses. This also applies situations, in which the user account itself is not within any sanctions. This means that CSC services can’t be used from Russian or Belarusian networks at all regardless of the user’s nationality.
Additionally, it has prevented to stream any content from RT Russia Today or Sputnik channels in the Funet network. This decision is based on (EU) 2022/350.
This decision is valid for now. CSC will comply with the decisions and sanctions set by EU and Finland and will update all restrictions according this regulation.
