Digital sovereignty does not begin with the operation of software, but right from the specifications stage. But can open source be specifically required in public tenders? Our new article shows how public contracting authorities can embed digital sovereignty into their procurement processes in practical terms.

Achieving digital sovereignty

Digital sovereignty is not merely a characteristic of software. It arises from strategic decisions regarding how digital infrastructure is selected, operated and further developed.Public contracting authorities lay down important framework conditions as early as the tender specifications: To what extent can a solution be integrated into existing infrastructures? What options are there for switching providers? And what scope for action will remain in the long term?

I spent an unreasonable amount of my life ensuring a minus sign lands in column 140 of a public-sector ERP file. Not encryption. Not dark magic. Just fixed-width text, invisible spaces, accounting rules, and a spreadsheet acting as an API specification.

🏛️ State and local governments are facing increasing cyber-physical risk, but resilience strategies often focus on assets and controls, not the real impact on citizens and public services. This white paper introduces Citizen Experience & Journey Mapping (CEJM), a practical approach that reframes resilience planning around service outcomes—linking CPS protection, service continuity, and recovery to measurable impact. Learn how SLG leaders can use CEJM to prioritize investments, align with #federal guidance, and strengthen public trust. 📃 Read here: https://claroty.com/resources/white-papers/citizen-experience-journey-mapping-for-mission-critical-resilience#PublicSector #CyberResilience #CPSecurity #CriticalInfrastructure #CyberSecurity #StateLocalGovernment

Citizen Experience & Journey Mapping for Mission-Critical Resilience

The Citizen Experience & Journey Mapping (CEJM) process reframes resilience planning around lived experience and ‘jobs to be done’, linking cyber-physical systems protection (CPSP), service resilience, and service recovery to measurable community outcomes and fundable projects.
