Those were the questions we dug into at Wednesday's breakfast seminar together with Gritera and Evroc.

Gritera walked us through what digital sovereignty actually means. The core point is getting organizations to think through which parts of their stack they genuinely can't afford to lose, and which are realistically interchangeable without major consequences. It's an important distinction. Not everything needs the same level of control.

Mount presented how we've built a next-generation governance and compliance system. One of several capabilities we offer is making vulnerabilities visible in a practical, manageable way. Register all your assets, run a structured risk analysis across assets, threats and vulnerabilities, and handle ongoing changes and compliance in the same place. Not just risk scores, but a real picture of where you stand.

For business-critical systems, the infrastructure choice is also a sovereignty question. Evroc is a European alternative to AWS, Google Cloud and Azure, with secure AI services where data never leaves Europe. evroc uses Mount for their own compliance, and Mount can be hosted on-prem on their European servers.
