Organizations Prioritize Data Sovereignty In SaaS

IDC reports in June 2025 that 45% of organizations and 56% of "digital natives" cite data sovereignty and potential cloud changes as their top concern for 2026. The research shows SaaS—particularly Microsoft 365—drives rapid business data growth, yet 63% of firms rely on native Microsoft 365 protection, increasing loss risk. IDC recommends compliance‑centric, layered controls such as encryption, immutability, and verified backups to bolster resilience.
