Stanislav Orlov, Technical Director of the Russian software developer ALMI Partner (OOO Almi Partner), drew attention to the terms of use of the code: "Open source code of a software product implies the ability to get acquainted with it, but what manipulations can be performed is usually specified in the license under which uganda whatsapp number database it is distributed. And the developer's task is not to violate the terms of use of the code, libraries and components. Sovereignty is characterized by the ability to maintain and improve this code and components. The main risk that exists when using open source code is disabling access to it for users from Russia. However, it is extremely difficult to do this physically due to the prevalence and large number of sources of the code. In addition, legally there is always an option in open source software with certain types of licenses."

a system integrator, believes that there are few sovereign products in the world: "In my opinion, developing a software product completely from scratch is a rare occurrence. One way or another, you have to use existing libraries. But this is a clear story. If the manufacturer has a good team and competence, then such a product is in fact a full-fledged development, which is not affected by Open Source components. Moreover, I know stories when a manufacturer shares corrections that are accepted by other communities, and eventually they end up in the original Open Source component. It is also worth noting that in our country we have very strict criteria for inclusion in the unified register of Russian software. And I am sure that products that are largely based on borrowed components are not included or will never be able to get into it."

Evgeny Fedorov believes that the center of technological sovereignty has good development prospects: "The prospects for the coming years look promising. Given the active development of digital technologies and the increase in the number of cyber threats, such initiatives are becoming increasingly relevant. Competitors may appear, but this only stimulates the quality and innovation of the proposed solutions."
