The benchmark identified Switzerland as the least risky nation for data storage with the lowest “potential risk score” of 1.6 percent. There is a risk map (https://www.artmotion.eu/risk-map/) which includs170 countries and shows Switzerland is the safest nation and Somalia is the least safe nation. CEO of Artmotion said: “More than ever, it is important for businesses and individuals to understand the impact that location can have on the privacy and security of their data. In the age of cloud computing, it’s easy to forget that every piece of information stored still requires a physical home, and that the geographic location of that home can have a serious impact on data privacy.”
