Why digital sovereignty has become a leadership issue
Control over your digital infrastructure isn’t just a technical issue, it's a board-level concern. Legal exposure, geopolitical tension, and vendor lock-in are forcing organizations to think harder about a simple question: What does it really mean to be in control?
“Control by design: the sovereignty spectrum” is a whitepaper that offers clarity in the face of complexity. It helps moving beyond checklists and into structured, strategic decision-making. It introduces the Sovereignty Operating Framework, a practical way to assess exposure, design for resilience, and retain the freedom to act on your own terms.
What you’ll learn:
- Why sovereignty is a spectrum, not a binary choice
- How European regulation is evolving beyond GDPR
- Where risks live two or three layers deep in your stack
- How to balance innovation, compliance, and control
- What “exit readiness” means in a hybrid, hyperscale world
Whether you run mission-critical systems in finance, energy, transport & logistics, or government, this paper will help you bring sovereignty down to earth with structure, nuance, and tools to act.
