This initiative is designed to ensure compliance with GDPR following the invalidation of the Privacy Shield framework in 2020. Key services like Microsoft 365 and Azure will be affected, with some data remaining protected within the region while allowing limited transfers under strict security measures for cybersecurity needs.
