Security compliance in Europe is no longer optional it directly impacts customer trust, legal exposure, and business continuity, as Anzhela Pozdniakova, Chief of Product at Xpand Portal , explores in this article. Leaders are increasingly expected to understand not just the rules, but who is responsible for meeting them. The key principle : security is a shared responsibility. Some controls belong to the infrastructure or hosting provider, some to the product vendor, some to the customer organization. The exact split depends on the deployment model – in SaaS, more operational responsibility usually sits with the provider; in self-hosted environments, more remains with the customer or hosting partner. For leaders, the goal is not to become security experts. The goal is to know which questions to ask, who owns each area, and whether responsibilities are clearly understood. Below are the key compliance areas in plain terms, organized by what infrastructure and product teams are each expected to cover.
