GDPR and Multicloud: How to guarantee your data sovereignty?

Data is the oil of the 21st century. But do you know exactly where yours is stored? For European and French companies, choosing a cloud provider has become a geopolitical and legal headache.

GDPR imposes strict rules on the privacy and handling of personal data. If your company uses American providers (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), it is exposed to the Cloud Act, a law allowing U.S. authorities to access data hosted by their companies, even if those servers are located in Europe.

This is where a Multicloud strategy coupled with a logic of sovereignty makes perfect sense. At World Cloud IT, we help our clients classify their data. Non-critical applications can leverage the power of the American giants. However, sensitive data (HR, healthcare, patents, strategic customer data) must be directed towards sovereign European hosting providers.

Designing an architecture capable of making these different environments communicate securely and encrypted is our specialty. Sovereignty should not be a barrier to technology, but a pledge of trust for your customers.
