Descope states that projects can now be created in three additional regions: Singapore, Brazil, and the United Kingdom.
Descope Data Residency Is Now Available in Seven Regions ↗
What happened
- Descope states its residency regions now total seven across four continents, including US, EU, Canada and Australia.
- Descope states that user data and project configuration are stored and maintained only within the selected region, and cannot be moved between regions once selected.
- Descope states its multi-region data residency coverage is included in its Growth and Enterprise licenses.
Why it matters to Signicat
- Residency coverage in the UK and Brazil and Singapore extends a competitor identity layer into Signicat's UK core market; Signicat's listed core markets do not include Singapore or Brazil.
- Descope frames the identity store as the densest personal-data store and residency gap, a point relevant to buyer security questionnaires that Signicat's data-sovereignty messaging also addresses.
