The European Union has made a significant decision to remove sovereignty requirements from its cybersecurity certification scheme, according to a leaked document. This move marks a shift in the EU's approach to cybersecurity and aims to streamline the certification process for technology companies.
The EU's cybersecurity certification scheme, known as EU-TECH-CLOUD, was initially designed to ensure that technology products and services meet high security standards. However, the inclusion of sovereignty requirements had raised concerns among industry experts and policymakers.
