+# Problem Statement
+
+This is the Problem Statement for [CyMaIS](https://cymais.cloud), highlighting the challenges we aim to address.
+
+## Short
+
+The problem stems from businesses and individuals being dependent on monopolistic cloud providers, losing control over their data, facing security risks, and being vulnerable to geopolitical manipulation, while small businesses struggle to set up secure, enterprise-level IT infrastructures due to lack of resources and expertise.
+
+## Explanation
+
+In today’s digital landscape, data is predominantly stored in the cloud, controlled by large corporations such as Microsoft, AWS, and other cloud providers. This creates a dependency on these providers, leading to increasingly expensive services and a lack of control over critical business data. 
+
+As organizations rely on these monopolistic players for their cloud services, they surrender ownership of their data, becoming vulnerable to the whims of these companies. This dependency puts them at the mercy of cloud and software giants, who not only dictate pricing and service levels but also influence the very governance of data.
+
+Moreover, the ease with which governments, intelligence agencies, and private corporations can access sensitive data is a growing concern. With increasing surveillance capabilities, the privacy of users and businesses is constantly at risk, further amplifying the vulnerability of data stored in centralized cloud infrastructures.
+
+Additionally, the dominance of these companies in sectors like social media further exacerbates the issue, making individuals and organizations susceptible to manipulation and control.
+
+The problem intensifies in times of political unrest or global conflicts. As data is often centrally stored with monopolistic providers, businesses become highly dependent on these entities for accessing their data and services. This dependency increases the risk of coercion or pressure from governments or private corporations, leading to potential **extortion**. Governments may attempt to gain leverage over businesses by threatening access to critical data or services, while private companies may exploit this dependency for their own interests. 
+
+In essence, the lack of sovereignty over data and the increasing control of a few monopolistic entities undermine the fundamental values of privacy, security, and independence. Organizations, especially small businesses, are left vulnerable to external pressures, making them pawns in a larger game dominated by these cloud and software giants.
+
+Furthermore, for small businesses, setting up enterprise-level open-source infrastructure with integrated solutions such as **Single Sign-On (SSO)**, **Identity and Access Management (IAM)**, **encryption**, **backup solutions**, and other essential IT services is nearly impossible. These businesses lack the resources, both financial and human, to deploy secure IT infrastructures at an enterprise level. 
+
+System administrators in small companies often don’t have the specialized knowledge or the capacity to build and maintain such complex infrastructures, which further exacerbates the challenge of securing sensitive business data while ensuring compliance with industry standards.
+
+## Key Points
+- Dependency on monopolistic cloud providers  
+- Loss of data sovereignty and data privacy risks  
+- Geopolitical vulnerabilities (extortion risk)  
+- Lack of resources for small businesses  
+- Limited expertise for secure infrastructure  
+- Centralized data storage risks
+- Manipulation through social media dominance

+# Vision Statement
+
+This is the Vision Statement for [CyMaIS](https://cymais.cloud), outlining our future goals and direction.
+
+## Short
+
+CyMaIS aims to empower individuals, businesses, NGOs, and enterprises with a secure, scalable, and decentralized IT infrastructure solution that ensures data sovereignty, promotes Open Source innovation, and reduces reliance on monopolistic cloud providers.
+
+## Explanation
+
+At the core of our mission is the development of a groundbreaking tool designed to address the inherent problems in managing IT infrastructure today, for individuals, businesses, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and large enterprises alike. From the rising costs of monopolistic cloud services to the loss of data sovereignty, security concerns, and dependency on centralized cloud providers, we aim to provide an alternative that empowers users, organizations, and businesses to regain control over their data and infrastructure.
+
+Our vision is to create a fully automated solution that enables all users, regardless of size or industry, to establish a secure, scalable, and self-managed IT infrastructure. This tool will break down the complexities of IT infrastructure setup, making it faster, simpler, and more secure, while being accessible to everyone—from individuals and grassroots organizations to large-scale enterprises.
+
+Grounded in Open Source principles, this solution will champion transparency, security, and innovation. It will be adaptable and flexible, offering a digital infrastructure that evolves alongside the diverse needs of businesses, organizations, and communities, all while maintaining a focus on usability and accessibility.
+
+We envision a future where users and organizations are no longer at the mercy of monopolistic cloud providers, where they can securely manage their own data and infrastructure. This future will see individuals and NGOs empowered with the same capabilities as large enterprises—ensuring that people of all scales can maintain control and sovereignty over their digital lives, free from external manipulation.
+
+CyMaIS will democratize access to advanced IT infrastructure solutions, providing security, flexibility, and scalability for all—from small NGOs to large multinational enterprises—without the cost and dependence on centralized, proprietary cloud services. By utilizing Open Source, our solution will meet the highest standards of security while fostering a collaborative, community-driven approach to innovation and continuous improvement.
+
+Moreover, our vision goes beyond just IT infrastructure; it extends to the broader goal of democratizing the internet itself. By integrating decentralized protocols like **ActivityPub**, **email**, and **Matrix**, we aim to restore the foundational principles of a decentralized, resilient internet. In today’s world, marked by political tensions, wars, and uncertainty, the importance of resilient, distributed infrastructures has never been greater. CyMaIS will enable all users—from individuals to NGOs and large enterprises—to remain independent and secure, ensuring that control over data and communications stays in their hands, not under the dominance of monopolistic entities.
+
+Ultimately, our vision is to redefine the way IT infrastructure is deployed and managed, offering a solution that is swift, secure, and scalable, capable of meeting the needs of businesses, individuals, NGOs, and large enterprises. CyMaIS will empower all stakeholders by providing a foundation for a decentralized, transparent, and resilient digital future—setting a new benchmark for security, reliability, and sovereignty in the digital age.
