For a bank, any migration of critical applications to the cloud starts with the same question: will we be at least as well protected as we are on-premises?<\/em><\/p>\n

Compliance as a starting point<\/h2>\n

Before discussing cost or performance, risk, compliance, security, and IT teams assess whether a cloud solution can meet regulatory requirements and supervisory expectations. These requirements: operational resilience, control over outsourcing, incident management, and data protection determine which applications can be migrated and how deep the transformation can go. Compliance thus becomes the foundation of the cloud strategy.<\/p>\n

OUTSCALE: compliance \u201cby design\u201d<\/h2>\n

At OUTSCALE, we chose to embed compliance \u201cby design\u201d from the company\u2019s inception over 15 years ago. Our sovereign infrastructure is SecNumCloud-qualified by ANSSI, a certification that attests to a high level of technical, operational, and legal rigor, particularly regarding sovereignty, sensitive data protection, and resilience against extraterritorial laws. This qualification is based on a highly demanding framework that complements ISO\/IEC 27001.<\/p>\n

Why SecNumCloud matters for banks<\/h2>\n

For a financial institution, SecNumCloud is a key trust marker: it ensures that the evaluated cloud offering meets a high level of security, that data is hosted within the European Union, and that the operator is not subject to extraterritorial laws that could compromise confidentiality or service availability. At OUTSCALE, this foundation is reinforced by certifications such as ISO 27001, 27017, 27018, HDS, and SOC 2 Type 2, further strengthening trust in the infrastructure for critical use cases.<\/p>\n

DORA: a new framework for digital operational resilience<\/h2>\n

The European DORA regulation (Digital Operational Resilience Act) harmonizes ICT risk management requirements across the EU for financial entities. It introduces stronger ICT risk governance, regular resilience testing, stricter oversight of critical service providers, and detailed reporting obligations in the event of major incidents. Leveraging a qualified sovereign cloud offering transparency, audit rights, traceability, and environment isolation becomes a key enabler for demonstrating DORA compliance and securing relationships with supervisory authorities.<\/p>\n

Sovereign SaaS solutions beyond infrastructure<\/h2>\n

At OUTSCALE, we offer SaaS solutions deployed on our sovereign cloud to manage fund compliance and structure end-to-end data value chains\u2014from ingestion to delivery in a controlled environment. Risk, compliance, and business teams thus benefit from ready-to-use application building blocks designed from the outset to meet regulatory expectations.<\/p>\n

Once this foundation of security, compliance, and sovereignty is in place, banks can focus on transforming their use cases and leveraging their data to make better decisions. The third article in this series will address this dimension: how to \u201ctransform and decide\u201d using a sovereign, hybrid infrastructure and well-governed AI.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
