Cloud under Control?

Digitalisation and the use of global cloud technologies offer companies enormous opportunities. At the same time, however, the risks of foreign 
government access, regulatory conflicts, and loss of control over critical information are increasing.

This whitepaper explains why digital sovereignty has become a strategic necessity and how European cloud providers make the decisive difference.
 

• Maximum data protection in line with GDPR, the Data Act, and national security laws
• Regulatory certainty through EU-wide standards such as NIS2, DORA, and the EU Cloud Certification Scheme (EUCS)
• Digital independence through full control over data, infrastructure, and key management within Europe

Through concrete case studies, legal comparisons between the U.S. and the EU, and practical recommendations, this document provides clear guidance for choosing secure cloud strategies. The result: long-term legal certainty, protection of sensitive information, and sustainable competitiveness through a cloud that is committed to European values.
