At a time when organisations are becoming increasingly dependent on foreign technology companies, there is a growing need for true digital sovereignty. Organisations want to regain control over their data, their Cloud infrastructure and their technological direction. That is exactly where Pink Elephant makes a difference; with solutions that directly address this strategic need. And of course Pink can also help to further sharpen, test and improve this story.
What is digital sovereignty?
Digital sovereignty is about retaining control over an organisation's digital foundations. This encompasses three core areas:
1. Data sovereignty
Legal and practical control over data: where it is stored, who has access and under which legislation the information falls.
2. Cloud sovereignty
Working with infrastructure that complies with local laws and regulations and is free from foreign jurisdictions that pose risks.
3. Technological sovereignty
The ability to build, manage and secure digital infrastructures independently without being dependent on one supplier or country.
These forms of sovereignty are crucial for protecting sensitive information, ensuring privacy and maintaining strategic autonomy.
