Strategie e best practice per ottimizzare i costi del cloud garantendo controllo e sovranità dei dati

 

L’adozione del cloud continua ad accelerare, portando con sé nuove complessità nella gestione dei costi e nella governance dei dati. Il modello FinOps si sta affermando come elemento chiave per garantire visibilità, controllo e ottimizzazione della spesa cloud.
Non a caso, l’89% delle aziende europee stima di sprecare una parte significativa del proprio budget cloud, secondo il sondaggio IDC EMEA CloudOps 2025 (n=509).

 

Dall’altra parte, la sovranità dei dati diventa un requisito imprescindibile per assicurare
conformità normativa, sicurezza e resilienza e, con eventi macroeconomici sempre piu’ frequenti e impattanti, la sovranita’ digitale sta diventando di priorità assoluta in Europa.

 

Infine, le organizzazioni si trovano oggi a dover bilanciare innovazione e controllo:
da un lato la necessità di scalare rapidamente e sfruttare ambienti multi-cloud, dall’altro l’esigenza di mantenere piena consapevolezza su dove risiedono i dati, come vengono gestiti e quali implicazioni normative ne derivano

Perchè partecipare:

  1. Ottimizzare i costi del cloud
    Scopri come adottare pratiche FinOps evolute per ridurre gli sprechi e massimizzare il valore degli investimenti cloud.
  2. Sovranità dei dati in ambienti multi-cloud
    Approfondisci le implicazioni normative e strategiche della data sovereignty nei contesti ibridi e distribuiti.
  3. Confronto tra decision-maker
    Un tavolo riservato per condividere strategie reali, criticità comuni e soluzioni già adottate con i tuoi pari.
  4. Governance, compliance e controllo
    Identifica approcci concreti per rafforzare il controllo sui tuoi ambienti cloud e garantire piena conformità normativa.

Cyber disruption, digital sovereignty, and leadership when it matters most

The IDC Security Summit France is the flagship annual event for CISOs, CIOs, security leaders, and executive decision-makers confronting a rapidly escalating cyber threat landscape.

As geopolitical friction intensifies, technology supply chains grow more complex, and regulatory demands expand, cybersecurity has moved beyond the IT function. It now sits firmly at the core of enterprise strategy – shaping sovereignty, resilience, and executive accountability.

In 2026, the Summit will unveil a fully immersive, scenario-based experience built around a high-impact cyber crisis simulation. Designed to reflect real-world dynamics, the format will challenge leaders to make critical decisions under pressure – balancing operational continuity, reputation, compliance, and stakeholder trust in real time.

More than a technology conference, the Summit explores what it truly takes to lead through crisis: clarity in uncertainty, coordination across functions, and the endurance to respond to sustained and increasingly credible attacks.

Strategic Context

According to IDC, cybersecurity is being fundamentally reshaped by the convergence of geopolitics and artificial intelligence.

By 2027:

  • One-third of governments will mandate sovereign AI strategies in sensitive sectors.

  • 80% of organizations will be exposed to phishing campaigns powered by AI-generated synthetic identities.

At the same time, AI-augmented threats are accelerating in scale and sophistication. Deepfakes, voice cloning, manipulated digital evidence, attacks targeting AI models, and the uncontrolled spread of “shadow AI” are dramatically increasing operational complexity and cognitive overload for security teams.

In this context, the IDC Security Summit France provides senior leaders with forward-looking insights, strategic benchmarks, and practical frameworks to reinforce digital sovereignty, strengthen enterprise resilience, and enhance executive decision-making in high-pressure environments.
