Also ask whether the AI assistant is trained on your data. WithSecure (Finland) says it processes data for Luminen in AWS in Europe and does not train foundation models on customer data. Sekoia stores data in Germany or elsewhere in the EU/EEA and is ISO 27001 certified. SoSafe (France) can run self-hosted.
