- The report states that one in three companies does not trust that they trust us with the great technology to handle their data correctly
- Civo finds that three in five focus on improving the sovereignty of the data
- Tariff -induced cost fluctuations also refer to the United Kingdom’s IT leaders
More than three out of five IT leaders of the United Kingdom say that the country’s government should stop using the United States cloud services due to safety and economic risks, and many cite tariffs induced by the current trade war as a central concern.
A new CIVO report states that a similar amount (61%) of British IT leaders also quotes the sovereignty of data as a strategic priority in the future, with a broader trend of data privacy that arises not only between the adoption of the cloud, but also with the use of artificial intelligence.
Today, almost half (45%) is actively considering the repatriation of the cloud as they return to environments on those who have more control.
Cloud security and cost concerns
With the EU and the United Kingdom data protection regulations that offer better compliance and transparency, two fifths of IT leaders say they are more likely to get away from US suppliers.
For a time when three of the world’s main hyperscalers (Amazon, Microsoft and Google) represent about two thirds of the cloud market, the CIVO report states that only one third (36.6%) trusts Big Tech AI suppliers to handle their data, with the sovereignty of data in second place at the price as an influential factor for the decision to move from the great technology.
“People are more alert than ever about how valuable their data is, and it has been surprising how fast the repatriation and sovereignty in the cloud and sovereignty for strategic leaders for IT leaders have become,” said Civo de Civo, Mark Boost.
“US suppliers are not fulfilling [the] The demand “of greater visibility on storage and the use of data, added Boost, noting that Europe leads the way in terms of sovereignty initiatives, urging the” United Kingdom to match the energy “of its continental counterparts.
