Instantly scan your govtech codebase for data sovereignty risks before deployment.
Remote teams building govtech tools face insane data sovereignty issues that force expensive workarounds and delay launches indefinitely.
SovScan analyzes your code, configs, and dependencies for sovereignty violations like unauthorized cloud providers or data export patterns. It generates compliance reports with fix suggestions tailored to gov standards like FedRAMP and GDPR. Remote teams can integrate it into CI/CD pipelines to avoid costly rewrites and launch delays.
