Episode 32: Data Sovereignty and Jurisdictional Control

In a global digital economy, where your data resides can determine which laws apply to it. This episode explains data sovereignty—the principle that data is subject to the laws of the country in which it’s stored—and how jurisdictional control affects compliance, privacy, and access. We examine common challenges organizations face when storing or processing data across borders, such as conflicting legal obligations or data transfer restrictions. We also explore strategies to manage these complexities, including data localization, cloud region selection, and contractual controls. CISSPs must understand how legal geography impacts cybersecurity.
