In today’s digital environment, exerting control over digital assets—often referred to as digital sovereignty—has become vital, especially for organizations in the public sector and heavily regulated industries. With the increasing complexity of compliance in the cloud, many organizations find it challenging to navigate the shifting landscape of policies and requirements. They often struggle to acquire the necessary expertise and resources while managing budgets to achieve their digital sovereignty goals.
To assist customers in safeguarding their data amidst a landscape of changing regulations, we are thrilled to unveil the AWS Digital Sovereignty Competency. This initiative connects clients with trusted partners who can help them harness the cloud’s advantages while adhering to compliance and regulatory standards.
