Project: Estonian Blockchain Technology

Responsible organisation: Estonian Government (Governmental)

2017 - data embassy in Luxembourg was established. Data Embassy is an extension in the cloud of the Estonian government, which means the state owns server resources outside its territorial boundaries. This is an innovative concept for handling state information, since states usually store their information within their physical boundaries. Data Embassy resources are under Estonian state control. They are secured against cyberattacks or crisis situations with Blockchain technology and are capable of not only providing data backups, but also operating the most critical services.
