OPERATING BOUNDARIES
Know what this edition does not imply.
An open-weight model alone does not create model sovereignty
Local infrastructure may still depend on foreign licensing or supply chains
Support and updates can introduce cross-boundary access unless controlled
Each sovereignty dimension must be documented and verified
Sovereign status depends on the selected technologies, infrastructure, contracts, jurisdiction, operating model and customer controls. Claims are made only for the specific verified deployment.
Capabilities, deployment controls and provider terms are verified for the selected solution. Shofield does not claim unverified certifications, partner designations or universal compliance guarantees.
