What makes US providers problematic
When choosing a cloud service provider, technological factors are not the only thing that matters – the provider's legal environment is also crucial. Companies based in the US are subject to specific legal obligations that make them vulnerable to government surveillance and supply chain disruptions.
This is particularly critical in light of geopolitical tensions, an increasingly interventionist US government, and a understanding of data protection that differs significantly from European standards.
FISA 702
Authorizes US intelligence services to monitor electronic communications of non-US persons outside the United States for the purpose of gathering information in a foreign intelligence context.
CLOUD Act
Requires US service providers to disclose electronic data to investigative authorities – even if it is stored on servers outside the US.
PATRIOT Act
Introduced as an anti-terrorism law, it allows US authorities extensive access to communications and business data – often without the knowledge of those affected.
Digital backpack checks as a compliance challenge
TLS encryption reliably protects digital communication from unauthorized access – but makes it difficult to detect cyber threats in encrypted data traffic. In order to identify malicious content, security solutions must temporarily decrypt (TLS termination) and analyze the encrypted data stream – similar to security checks at events.
This technical intervention is sensitive: confidential information also becomes visible in the process. TLS termination therefore places high demands on data protection, legal security, and technical expertise – requirements that not all providers are able to meet in a legally compliant and GDPR-compliant manner.
