Google has upgraded its sovereign cloud services amidst concerns over US tech dominance and privacy issues in various countries.
The updates include an air-gapped cloud service, Google Cloud Dedicated regional platform, and Google Cloud Data Boundary for enhanced data control and security.
Google Cloud's air-gapped service is specifically tailored for sectors with strict data residency and security requirements, including authorization to store US government Top Secret and Secret-level data.
The company has partnered with Thales to create Trusted Cloud for Europe and is targeting Germany next with its sovereign cloud offerings.
