European hosting, storage and processing, and European roots are not an ideological statement, but a logical outcome of European regulations for organisations within the EU domain.

Digital resilience and compliance are no longer purely technical issues; they affect governance, risk decision-making and administrative responsibility.

• Under the GDPR, strict conditions apply to the transfer of personal data outside the EEA.
• NIS2 places explicit responsibility on management for approving and supervising cybersecurity and chain risks, including risks arising from international dependencies.
• DORA requires demonstrable control of ICT and third-party risks.
• The Cyber Resilience Act imposes additional requirements on the security and lifecycle management of digital products.

This means that hosting, jurisdiction, supplier selection and tooling are no longer solely a cost consideration, but primarily a governance issue.
It is therefore logical to set up risk management, compliance and control in line with these frameworks.
Only then can organisations confidently face assessments by regulators or certifying bodies.
