Major trends in the forecast period include sovereign cloud infrastructure expansion, data localization and residency enforcement, secure government application modernization, digital identity and access management adoption, national cybersecurity risk assessment integration.

The growing number of cybersecurity threats is expected to drive the growth of the digital sovereignty in government market going forward. Cybersecurity threats refer to the increasing frequency, complexity, and impact of malicious activities targeting digital systems, networks, applications, or data with the intent to disrupt operations, steal sensitive information, or compromise system integrity. Cybersecurity threats are rising due to the rapid expansion of digital connectivity and cloud-based infrastructures, which broaden the attack surface for cybercriminals. Digital sovereignty in government enhances national resilience by enabling governments to retain full control over data storage, system governance, and cybersecurity frameworks, helping reduce risks, safeguard sensitive information, and ensure operational continuity. For instance, in June 2024, according to the United States Office of Management and Budget’s FISMA Annual Report to Congress, a US-based government cybersecurity authority, federal agencies reported 32,211 cybersecurity incidents in fiscal year 2023, representing an approximate 9.9% increase compared with the 29,319 incidents recorded in fiscal year 2022. Therefore, the increasing cybersecurity threats are contributing to the growth of the digital sovereignty in government market.

Leading companies operating in the digital sovereignty in government market are concentrating on developing innovative solutions, such as sovereign support and control services, to address the growing need for regulatory compliance, data privacy, and national control over digital infrastructure. Sovereign support and control services deliver localized operational control, stronger data privacy, and region-specific support frameworks that ensure alignment with local laws and governance requirements, offering clear benefits compared to traditional global, centralized service models that may not satisfy strict sovereign data regulations. For example, in July 2025, SUSE S.A., a Germany-based software company, launched SUSE Sovereign Premium Support, a digital sovereignty support offering tailored specifically for European Union environments that stores customer support data on EU-based servers and provides named EU-based technical support personnel to meet stringent data privacy and compliance requirements. The service expands traditional support by combining localized expertise, enhanced data control, and proactive governance capabilities to help government and regulated organizations manage evolving sovereign requirements, reduce reliance on non-regional infrastructures, and strengthen operational resilience. SUSE Sovereign Premium Support includes enhanced encryption for troubleshooting, direct access to EU-based engineers and service delivery managers, and customized support across a broad portfolio of enterprise solutions to address compliance and sovereignty challenges.

In November 2025, Kyndryl Holdings Inc., a US-based technology services company, acquired Solvinity Group B.V. for an undisclosed sum. Through this acquisition, Kyndryl seeks to strengthen its technology services portfolio by combining its mission-critical advisory, implementation, and managed services expertise with Solvinity’s secure private and hybrid sovereign cloud solutions to more effectively support customers with stringent workload security, compliance, and data sovereignty needs. Solvinity Group B.V. is a Netherlands-based provider of secure managed private and hybrid cloud services designed to meet strict data security and regulatory compliance standards.
