SentinelOne, the AI-native cybersecurity leader, and Schwarz Digits, the IT and digital arm of the Schwarz Group, announced a strategic alliance to launch a sovereign, AI-driven cybersecurity platform tailored for European organizations. The collaboration addresses the rising demand for secure data control, operational resilience, and compliance with stringent regulatory frameworks across Europe. Under this exclusive partnership, SentinelOne’s advanced AI-powered detection and response technologies will be deployed on Schwarz Digits’ STACKIT sovereign cloud in Germany. This empowers European and multinational enterprises to protect critical infrastructure, comply with EU and German regulations, and retain full control over their security operations and data.
Powering Sovereign Cybersecurity for Europe
The joint offering combines SentinelOne’s Singularity™ Platform with STACKIT’s sovereign, GDPR-compliant cloud infrastructure to deliver a European-built cybersecurity solution. Customer data and telemetry will remain under German jurisdiction, aligned with rigorous security and regulatory standards, including ISO 27001 and C5 certification from the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI).
Rolf Schumann, Co-CEO, Schwarz Digits, said: “In Europe, we must use and further develop cutting-edge technology without giving away our data. Otherwise, we will lose our innovative strength and economic power. The partnership with SentinelOne is the perfect example of how technology openness and data sovereignty can be reconciled.”
Christian Müller, Co-CEO, Schwarz Digits, added: “We provide the secure and compliant infrastructure on which SentinelOne can offer its holistic Cybersecurity suite. This synergy creates tremendous value for the market and strengthens the digital resilience of the European economy and public sector.”

AI-Powered Security With Data Sovereignty
SentinelOne’s Singularity Platform leverages patented AI and behavioral analytics to autonomously detect, respond, and remediate threats across endpoints, cloud workloads, data, and identities. Its Storyline technology delivers deep visibility and context, enabling defenders to accelerate investigations and contain attacks at machine speed. This foundation supports SentinelOne’s leadership across modern endpoint protection (EDR, MDR, XDR), cloud security (CWPP, CNAPP, Exposure Management), data protection (AI SIEM, Hyperautomation, GenAI security), and identity defense (ITDR).
By operating natively on STACKIT’s sovereign infrastructure, the platform helps organizations meet evolving European compliance mandates such as GDPR, NIS2, and DORA, without compromising speed or visibility.
Tomer Weingarten, CEO of SentinelOne, said: “European customers have long wanted security solutions that combine state-of-the-art protection with full data sovereignty. Partnering with Schwarz Digits enables us to meet this demand giving customers in highly regulated industries the confidence to embrace AI-powered cybersecurity without compromise.”
Building a Unified Cyber Defense Ecosystem
This collaboration also strengthens Schwarz Digits’ broader cybersecurity portfolio, including XM Cyber’s Continuous Exposure Management platform. Together, these technologies provide a comprehensive approach to cyber risk mapping attack paths, identifying vulnerabilities, and enabling automated remediation in a sovereign cloud environment.
The launch comes ahead of upcoming EU policy initiatives such as the Cloud and AI Development Act (CAIDA), which emphasizes expanding sovereign, secure cloud infrastructure for critical applications. SentinelOne and STACKIT are proactively delivering on that vision today, equipping organizations to adapt to future regulations and defend against emerging cyber threats.
This partnership marks a significant milestone in Europe’s pursuit of digital sovereignty and cyber resilience, offering both public and private sector organizations a trusted, scalable, and sovereign platform to secure their digital future.
