We first heard of the Australian government gettings fallout from the US because of voiced concerns about using offshore cloud providers.

This might spell an increased demand for local alternatives for business software. Another way is to start deploying software in a more security conscious manner. For instance encrypting the stored information so that the cost of spionage increases.
