Since then, there has also been a call in the House of Commons for more control over our digital infrastructure. Even Microsoft acknowledges: cloud service blockades in Europe are possible.

What does the Dutch Court of Audit say?

In the report “The Realm in the Cloud” (Jan. 2025), the Court of Audit sounds the alarm about cloud usage within the government. The main conclusions are:

  • 67% of the cloud contracts was concluded without a risk assessment
  • More than 50% of the cloud solutions in use come from Microsoft, Google or Amazon
  • Sovereignty, continuity, and data protection are not sufficiently guaranteed.
