Atos announced the launch of Atos OneCloud Sovereign Shield, a set of solutions, methodologies, and operational cloud services that is unique on the market, enabling clients across the world to meet the challenges of managing their data in the edge to cloud continuum, in line with the highest jurisdictional data governance requirements. Part of the Atos' OneCloud initiative, Atos OneCloud Sovereign Shield is a comprehensive edge to cloud platform ecosystem and highly secure service that improves the level of control clients have over the data they produce and exchange, helping them regain control and effectively deal with legal dependencies. Rather than a binary vision of digital sovereignty, Atos creates a range of risk controls, supporting industries and governments in deploying hybrid and multi cloud strategies in terms of data segregation, infrastructure, applications, security, and operations. Atos offers a customized version of the solution depending on the sensitivity of client data. Atos OneCloud Sovereign Shield can be deployed on: a private disconnected cloud ? adapted to clients? requirements, ensuring data segregation; through a regional or local public cloud - immune to non-European access; and on a global public cloud - delivered with sovereign controls. Atos OneCloud Sovereign Shield is based on an optimized framework of: Proprietary technological building blocks ? leveraging Atos? expertise in open-source software, as well as Atos designed and manufactured BullSequana Edge servers, its Trustway range of encryption products, its Evidian Identity and Access Management software, IDnomic Trusted Identities, Atos Managed Detection and Response (MDR) cybersecurity monitoring services and Trusted Third Parties; Local and specific partnerships ? ensuring control, processing, and jurisdictional treatment of data, by partnering with strategic players per geography and providing local experts and consulting accordingly. These partnerships, which are currently being developed, will be announced as and when they are signed; Global partnerships ? ensuring public cloud access, connectivity and vendor choice from Google GCP, Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, OVHcloud, VMWare, and Red Hat. The solution leverages Atos'key differentiators which are its expertise and ability to: Ensure that data, including data in-transit from edge to cloud, is managed in a fullysecure and auditable way according to customers? sovereignty requirements, as well as future industry standards such as Gaia-X labels and European Cybersecurity Scheme (ENISA). This is supported by the Atos leadership in data security and in its edge to cloud continuum data management and orchestration.
