Google Cloud to Modernize NATO’s Classified Cloud Infrastructure in Major Deal
Google Cloud has secured a significant multi-million dollar contract with the NATO Communication and Information Agency (NCIA) to provide advanced, sovereign cloud solutions tailored to meet NATO’s stringent security and data governance standards. This collaboration marks a pivotal step in fortifying NATO’s digital infrastructure, boosting its capacity to safeguard vital information, and facilitating the secure integration of cutting-edge cloud and AI technologies. The move underscores the growing importance of secure and reliable cloud infrastructure for international organizations.
Google Distributed Cloud Selected for JATEC Modernization
The NCIA has chosen Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) to modernize the Joint Analysis, Training and Education Centre (JATEC). By leveraging GDC, JATEC will be able to upgrade its operational environment, optimize data-driven processes, and manage sensitive and classified workloads with greater flexibility and resilience. A key element of this solution is GDC air-gapped, Google’s completely isolated, sovereign cloud infrastructure designed to operate without internet connectivity, ensuring the highest levels of security and control. This is particularly relevant in the context of international security, where data sovereignty and isolation are paramount.
This partnership exemplifies the increasing reliance on cloud technology for critical international operations. Google Cloud’s secure and sovereign cloud capabilities are poised to significantly enhance NATO’s operational efficiency and security posture, enabling it to adapt to the evolving digital landscape.
