# Self-Sovereign Technology: Why It Matters
|
|
|
|
In an era of increasing data breaches and privacy concerns, self-sovereign technology has become more important than ever. But what does it mean, and why should your business care?
|
|
|
|
## What is Self-Sovereignty?
|
|
|
|
Self-sovereign technology means you have complete control over your:
|
|
- **Data**: Store it where you want, how you want
|
|
- **Identity**: Own your digital identity without relying on third parties
|
|
- **Infrastructure**: Host your own services without vendor lock-in
|
|
|
|
## The Benefits
|
|
|
|
### 1. Complete Control
|
|
No more dependency on cloud providers who can change terms, raise prices, or shut down services without warning.
|
|
|
|
### 2. Enhanced Security
|
|
When you control your infrastructure, you control your security. No third-party has access to your sensitive data.
|
|
|
|
### 3. Cost Efficiency
|
|
Self-hosted solutions often have lower long-term costs compared to subscription-based cloud services.
|
|
|
|
### 4. Compliance Made Easy
|
|
Meet regulatory requirements by knowing exactly where your data is stored and who has access.
|
|
|
