Digital Sovereignty Through Control
You control the model, the data flow, the exit and the evidence. And you can show it in an audit.
What is Digital Sovereignty?
Sovereignty is control over data flows, access, and decisions.
Standard is Germany or Europe.
When innovation requires a model outside Europe, a controlled exception applies with data classification, data masking, DLP, approval, and review.
Standard vs. Controlled Exception
Standard (Default)
- Hosting in Germany/EU
- Services in Germany/EU
- Open Standards
- Free LLMs with governance
Controlled Exception
- Only defined data classes
- Data masking required
- DLP rules enforced
- Documented approval + review cycle
Minimum Criteria for Digital Sovereignty
Hosting in Germany/EU
All systems and data are hosted in Germany or the EU.
Control over storage
Only you decide where your data resides and for how long.
Control over data flows
Transparent and documented data flows with no unexpected outflows.
Control over access
Who accesses your data? When? Why? Everything is traceable.
Services in Germany/EU
All software services and platforms run in Germany/EU.
Open Source
Preferred: open source code, transparent licenses, no black boxes.
Free LLMs
Large Language Models with open source code enable local deployment and auditability.
Exit option
You can always take your data with you, no vendor lock-in.

Sovereignty, proven in the product
The four levers are not theory. In the Cybervize platform they are product:
Model
Local LLM: the Cybervize Navigator runs by default on a language model operated in Germany.
Data flow
No external outflow: no data passed to model providers, answers strictly limited to your own tenant.
Exit
Bring your own LLM: connect your own model; the Sovereign, BYOK and Managed operating modes can be chosen per tenant.
Proof
Audit log and AI system registry: every question to the assistant is logged, AI systems managed following EU AI Act logic.
