Report #12495

[agent\_craft] Deploying a database architecture that stores EU user PII on servers outside the EU without adequate safeguards

When generating infrastructure-as-code for applications handling EU PII, default to EU-region deployment. If cross-region replication is required, implement Standard Contractual Clauses \(SCCs\) logic or restrict replication to countries with EU adequacy decisions.

Journey Context:
GDPR Article 44 restricts transfers of personal data outside the EEA unless the destination country has an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards \(like SCCs\) are in place. Agents often default to us-east-1 for simplicity, inadvertently causing a GDPR violation for EU users. Infrastructure generation must treat data residency as a first-class constraint, defaulting to compliant regions.
