Public Sector Digital Sovereignty: Cloud and State Doctrine
For government and local authorities, sovereign cloud is doctrine, not an option. Obligations and compliant solutions for sensitive public data.
For government bodies and local authorities, digital sovereignty is not optional — it is state doctrine. Sensitive public data must be hosted on a controlled cloud, beyond the reach of foreign law.
The "Cloud at the centre" doctrine
The doctrine requires sensitive state data to be hosted either on an internal cloud or on a commercial cloud SecNumCloud-qualified — therefore immune to the US CLOUD Act.
Which cloud for a public administration?
A qualified sovereign cloud guaranteeing European hosting, controlled operation and reversibility. Local authorities, facing the same citizen-trust stakes, should align on the same bar, consistent with NIS2.
