Summary
France’s domestic intelligence agency DGSI will swap Palantir data tools for software from local firm Chapsvision, marking a concrete shift in a key security system.
Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu said the change is part of a broader drive to cut reliance on US technology and build sovereign French alternatives.
That push also includes giving all civil servants access to an AI assistant powered by domestic startup Mistral AI.
The move fits a wider European effort to reduce dependence on major US tech providers in sensitive public-sector and security functions.
