France’s General Directorate for Internal Security (DGSI) is discontinuing its use of Palantir Technologies’ data analytics software. The decision, announced by Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu, signals a shift towards prioritizing a French-developed alternative. This move aims to enhance data security and reduce reliance on foreign technology within the French intelligence community. The DGSI previously utilized Palantir for data processing and analysis, but concerns regarding data sovereignty and potential vulnerabilities likely influenced the change. Details regarding the specific French software replacing Palantir have not been disclosed. This development reflects a broader trend among European nations seeking greater control over their data and technological infrastructure. The transition is expected to be completed in the near future.
