Verkhovna Rada Registers Trusted Tech Caucus Draft Law Aligned with xGTT Principles

Six Members of Parliament participating in Ukraine’s Trusted Tech Caucus have registered Draft Law No. 15344-1, “On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine Regarding the Development of Cloud Services and Data Processing Services.” The draft is intended to regulate the provision of cloud services and data-centre services, increase access to these services for public-sector customers, enhance the investment attractiveness of Ukraine’s digital market, and strengthen the country’s long-term digital resilience and security.

The draft law advances principles of legal certainty, transparent and accountable relationships between technology providers and the public sector, strong technical and data-security protections, technology neutrality, and proportionate government oversight. These approaches are closely aligned with the emerging Global Trusted Tech Standard (xGTT) and the broader trusted-technology principles underlying it, including trustworthiness, security, transparency, accountability, and access to trusted international technology partners.

“Trust must be built into the infrastructure on which a nation’s digital future depends. The Trusted Tech Caucus in Ukraine’s Verkhovna Rada deserves recognition for initiating this important effort to embed trustworthiness, security, transparency, and accountability into Ukraine’s cloud infrastructure. This is exactly the kind of forward-looking leadership that can strengthen Ukraine’s digital resilience while keeping it connected to the world’s trusted technology ecosystem. It is an important example of putting trusted-technology principles into practice,” said Len Khodorkovsky, Senior Advisor to the Chairman, Krach Institute for Tech Diplomacy at Purdue, and former U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Digital Strategy.

The legislative work was preceded by discussions during the official Ukraine Recovery Conference 2026 side event, “Digital Sovereignty through Partnership: Secure Global Integration for Ukraine’s Reconstruction and Resilience,” organised by the Economic Security Council of Ukraine (ESCU) in partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and in coordination with Ukraine’s Trusted Tech Caucus.

Draft Law No. 15344-1 is currently under consideration by the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Digital Transformation.
