The need: securing data in a complex cloud environment
In a world where data flows across borders, digital sovereignty has become a top priority for operators. Network leaders face a key challenge: automation and outsourcing must not come at the expense of control.
Key challenges identified in this project:
Data localization control: ensuring sensitive data remains under national or regional jurisdiction.
Regulatory compliance: anticipating risks related to foreign laws and security audits.
Dependency management: reducing operational reliance on global cloud providers.
Governance and classification: defining clear standards to prioritize data protection.
