As a technical megatrend, cloud computing reflects essential key technologies and acts as a driver of innovation in digitalization. At the same time, the desire for digital sovereignty is increasing. This means having complete control over your own data and controlled access models for third-party providers. This is achieved by creating individual, proprietary cloud computing configurations in the sense of a “private cloud” - a time-consuming and technically complex task.
The design and integration of secure cloud solutions, such as the NSC, into an existing VS-IT network, including their secure operation (SecOps), are central to our work. This includes the creation and continuous updating of VSA-compliant security concepts. Based on usage scenarios, threat and risk analyses and the existing VS-IT infrastructure, we first carry out a comprehensive security assessment. Any residual risks are minimized through additional organizational and technical measures, such as the deployment of certified IT security products. Following this, we develop a VSA-compliant solution concept.
We provide support for the setup and complete, sovereign operation of secure cloud solutions on premises, including assistance with troubleshooting and adjustments (DevOps).
We enable clients to utilize management systems for orchestrating secure cloud solutions, such as the agile setup of a security domain for rapid availability and project support.
We establish and operate a development environment for the design of secure cloud solutions.
Basically, the NSC is our approvable and proven reference architecture for private cloud solutions. It is used for the exchange of information that falls under the national classification levels up to DEUTSCH VS-VERTRAULICH/NATO CONFIDENTIAL and DEUTSCH GEHEIM/NATO SECRET as well as NATO/MISSION SECRET (whereby NATO and the classifications are mainly applicable in a military context). The flexibility of the reference architecture naturally also allows platforms for the use of information classified at lower levels.
