WISeKey Tells Governments at the World Economic Forum in Davos that Sovereignty over their Data Online can be Maintained

Geneva/Davos (ots)

Cloud Computing Need not be a Problem for
Governments - Provided the Right Approach is Taken
Recent developments have woken many governments up to the reality 
of Cyberspace and how it is challenging the traditional conception of
Sovereignty. "With data being stored virtually anywhere in the world 
and government employees and citizens using information technology 
systems that are hosted and operated from anywhere (even outside of 
their jurisdiction), the expected sovereign rights over that data and
those communications is frequently lost" said Juan Avellan, Deputy 
CEO in charge of Data Sovereignty at WISeKey.
Many information technology companies are telling governments that
secure information technologies are enough to ensure sovereignty over
their data. Others are stating that new legislation is needed. All in
all, the solutions they propose are partial and unsatisfactory.
WISeKey, as a World Economic Forum Global Growth company, has been
at the forefront of balancing technology, law, policy and geopolitics
from its headquarters in Switzerland (and its bases in different 
regions). WISeKey has developed over the years solutions to the 
problems of State sovereignty and the challenges brought on by 
technology.
"WISeKey´s solutions are not limited to technology or changing 
laws - WISeKey proposes a comprehensive and multdisciplinary approach
based on the existing legal frameworks using technologies that are 
widely available combined with very clear digital trust frameworks. 
WISeKey´s approach elegantly integrates into current law, 
international diplomatic protocols with an institutional framework 
that provides governments with a practical and reliable long-term 
solution", said Carlos Moreira Founder CEO WISeKey.
WISeKey is making available its solutions and experts to 
governments globally who wish to solve these problems. Please visit
