Defense EU governance

Plan European defense-adjacent AI controls on your own infrastructure

European defense and dual-use programs need explicit boundaries for model access, data handling, and review evidence. Verdictan offers a self-hosted gateway path for supported traffic, but your national and program rules remain authoritative.

What you are trying to solve

Commercial AI services may not match your deployment, data residency, or review requirements without a dedicated control point.

Step 1

Confirm which request families, providers, and deployment boundary your program must support.

Step 2

Start from a sector template or control map, then tune thresholds for your environment.

Step 3

Run deterministic policy tests before you route regulated or customer-facing traffic.

Questions European programs should answer first

Identify whether your workload may include export-controlled, operational, or personal data before you connect any assistant to an external model.

This page is not legal advice, accreditation guidance, or a statement of compliance with any national defense regime. Use it to frame a technical evaluation only.

Controls teams usually test first

Sovereign deployment

Evaluate on-premises or disconnected gateway deployment when outbound model traffic must stay inside approved infrastructure.

Provider allow lists

Route only to upstream targets your program approves and keep credentials scoped to those targets.

Evidence for review

Retain gateway decision events so security officers can reconstruct allow, redact, block, and escalation outcomes.

A practical rollout sequence

  • Complete your program-specific legal and security review before you test any AI governance tooling.
  • Map supported request families to approved providers and environments inside your boundary.
  • Run policy tests in an isolated environment and archive results for your accreditation workflow.

You can demonstrate configured policy handling and retained decision events for supported traffic inside your approved environment.
