EU Considers Banning US Cloud for Sensitive Government Data
The EU is considering new regulations to limit member governments’ reliance on U.S. cloud providers for sensitive data. The upcoming “Tech Sovereignty Package” aims to strengthen the bloc’s digital autonomy. Discussions focus on restricting third-party cloud access for public sector data, particularly financial, judicial, and health information. This initiative, driven by geopolitical concerns and U.S. data access laws, seeks to promote European cloud solutions. The regulations will not apply to the private sector.
