GA_VF_EN.png

- S3NS, the company formed through a partnership between Thales and Google Cloud, is making its first solution available as planned on February 1 to French organizations in the public and private sectors looking for a public cloud offering with local control capabilities.


- “Local controls by S3NS” aims to simplify operations and increase customers’ trust in the cloud by offering data localization in the EU, cryptographic control over data access managed by S3NS, European technical support, and increased transparency, automation, audit and security guarantees with the same level of performance provided by Google Cloud technology.


- This new offering, which will not aim to obtain the SecNumCloud certification, allows organizations to begin their transition to a public cloud environment that aims to be certified cloud de confiance as defined by the French government’s cloud strategy.

General Availability : Local Controls by S3NS

S3NS, the company formed through a partnership between Thales and Google Cloud, controlled by Thales and operating under French law, announces the general availability of “Local Controls by S3NS”, a new public cloud offering for organizations in the French public and private sector.

Local Controls by S3NS aims to simplify operations and increase customers’ trust in the cloud by:
- Allowing French institutions and companies to control the location of their data at rest, restricting it to the EU and France.
- Offering cryptographic control over data access managed and operated by S3NS.
- Ensuring that support personnel reside in Europe to meet compliance requirements without making any compromise on the level and quality of support.
- Providing transparency, verifiable approval mechanisms, and auditability of
administrative activity.

S3NS continues to work towards the goal of offering French public institutions and private sector companies Google Cloud’s services and innovation capability in a Trusted Cloud solution that obtains ANSSI's SecNumCloud certification in the
second half of 2024.

- **Thales announced today the creation of S3NS, a Paris-based company under French law, fully controlled by the Group. The Chairman of S3NS is Walter Cappilati and its General Manager Cyprien Falque. S3NS' creation follows the setting up of a strategic partnership with Google Cloud announced in initial October 2021.**
- **S3NS’ mission is to help public and private organizations in France benefit from the power of the Google Cloud Platform (GCP), while protecting their sensitive data in compliance  with the criteria of France’s national Information Systems Security Agency (ANSSI).**
- **As of today, S3NS is commercialising “Local Controls with S3NS", a solution that complements the standard high security and performance specifications of the Google Cloud Platform with guarantees on data location and localized support, and additional security, including encryption controlled data access operated by S3NS. This offering enables organizations to start their move to the French “Trusted Cloud” now.**
- **S3NS currently numbers several dozen employees and is accelerating its drive to recruit talent in order to meet the company’s goals. S3NS is already working with integrators and software partners to provide its customers with a broad range of services and solutions.**

**Thales announced today the creation of S3NS, a French company designed to offer public and private organizations in France the power of Google Cloud, fully compliant with France's “Trusted Cloud” label, in partnership with Google Cloud.**

The new company, majority owned and controlled by Thales, is under French law and follows the October 2021 partnership announcement between Thales and Google Cloud to jointly develop a locally-compliant Trusted Cloud offering. Thales and Google Cloud are committed to helping companies and public institutions to innovate and accelerate their digital transformation in ways that afford autonomy, compliant sovereignty, and the greatest possible benefits for their customers and users. 

**Meeting the French “Trusted Cloud”**
 
S3NS will offer from the second half of 2024 its “trusted cloud” offering that will ultimately combine full performance, services and applications of Google Cloud technology while allowing protection against extraterritorial foreign laws and in compliance with the requirements of the “Trusted Cloud” label of France’s Information Systems Security Agency (ANSSI) in the frame of the French State strategy. S3NS will directly operate three data centers to ensure data and workload localisation in France. Both data center availability and engineering assistance will be available this year already and the recruitment of engineers who will operate the “Trusted Cloud” will begin.

**A first milestone with an offering already available**

S3NS' first offering is "Local control with S3NS", which will offer Google Cloud customers in France continued high public cloud performance, with added capabilities to localize clients’ data in France or in Europe, as needed or preferred. Customers will be able to restrict data access for administrative service and technical support solely to European Union locations. Cryptographic control of data access can be achieved with external encryption key management from S3NS. This first offering brings compliance with additional automation to simplify operations, along with additional auditability and transparency to increase customer confidence in cloud operations.

**Committing partners already**

To best support customers in this transition to the “Trusted Cloud”, S3NS is finalizing specific partnership agreements with various players in France's growing digital ecosystem. Partners will be able to support S3NS customers in their cloud and digital sovereignty strategy, as they migrate and operate their workloads and applications securely, with the help of S3NS’ and other managed services.

>“The S3NS offering is the best of both worlds: the agility and wide range of services of a cloud hyperscaler combined with the security and data protection of a cybersecurity leader. This step marks the beginning of a technological and industrial adventure which will engage all the French economic players attached to a trusted solution. As a leader in critical information systems, Thales is once again demonstrating its ability to be a driving force in disruptive technologies”. **Marc Darmon, Executive Vice President, Secure Communications and Information Systems at Thales.**

>“The creation of S3NS, progress on the definition of our Trusted Cloud offeringand the availability of our “Local controls with S3NS '' is the result of many months of collaboration between Thales and the Google Cloudteams. This is a first step and a first milestone this year, before our future solution in compliance with the French “Trusted Cloud” criteria, which we are working on in parallel. Our objective is to be the first to make such an offering available for certification and based on hyperscale cloud technology. "Local Controls with S3NS'' enables our customers to start their journey to the trusted cloud now”. **Cyprien Falque, Managing Director of S3NS.**

>“We are very proud to support our partner Thales and its subsidiary S3NS and its first offering in the French market. This collaboration between our teams reflects on the one hand an understanding of the expectations related to digital sovereignty, and on the other hand a real technological trajectory. We confirm the commitments made together in 2021 and will continue to support digital transformation with offers that combine security and sovereignty, without compromising on performance.” **Thomas Kurian, CEO at Google Cloud.**

- **The jointly developed sovereign cloud offering will meet the French "Trusted Cloud" requirements and enable French organizations to innovate and fully benefit from hyperscale <sup>1</sup> cloud technology, while keeping their data confidential, secure and fully sovereign**
- **This solution will live on dedicated infrastructure that will be managed and operated by a new company, of which Thales will be the majority shareholder**


**Thales and Google Cloud today announced a strategic agreement to co-develop a sovereign hyperscale cloud offering for France. Operated by a joint company with Thales as the majority shareholder, it will meet the criteria of the French ‘Trusted Cloud.’ With this new offering, French companies and public sector organizations will benefit from all the power, security, flexibility, agility and sovereignty offered by the respective technologies of the two organizations.**

By addressing the highest legal and technical requirements for ‘Trusted Cloud’, the Thales and Google Cloud offering will enable private and public sector organisations who need to meet the criteria - defined by France’s Information Systems Security Agency (ANSSI)<sup>2</sup>  - to benefit from cloud computing services, in accordance with the country’s sovereign cloud strategy.

The joint offer of Thales and Google Cloud is based on the most advanced technologies and services of each partner. Google Cloud’s services, which will be enhanced and complemented with new innovations regularly, will bring elasticity, agility and technological openness, enabling companies to innovate transparently and autonomously, without vendor lock-in.
Thales, a leader in cybersecurity for more than 40 years, will bring the necessary guarantees of France’s sovereignty requirements by ensuring the management of encryption keys, access, identities, and cyber threat monitoring with its Cybersecurity Operations Center. Thales thus provides the levels of trust and of security required from French customers so that they can migrate their most sensitive applications to the cloud while maintaining control.

- French companies and public sector institutions will be able to benefit from a set of hyperscale cloud services that are:
- operated by a dedicated, newly formed company under French law, held in majority by Thales;
- hosted in France, within infrastructure that is separate from Google Cloud, with a separate network and servers controlled and operated by the new company;
- supported locally by the new company, ensuring customer service is handled in France;
- locally secured with identity management, data encryption, administration and supervision being provided by the new company;
- regularly enhanced via rolling software updates that are evaluated and validated within a security sandbox managed by Thales; and
- managed on a sustainably developed infrastructure.


>"To adapt to the diversity of our customers’ cloud needs, Thales offers a wide range of options with partners in its ecosystem. Thanks to this unique collaboration with Google Cloud, we will be able to help power the digital transformation for organizations of all sizes and industries that want to keep control and sovereignty over their data and that of their customers. Together, we will address the criteria defined by the government for a trusted cloud, as well as environmental goals with a sustainable approach for the infrastructure we will build,” **said Marc Darmon, Executive Vice President, Secure Communications and Information Systems at Thales.**

>“Thales and Google Cloud have a joint vision to deliver the most innovative and trusted solutions to companies and public sector organizations in France. Our unique approach to addressing the concerns of French citizens and government bodies, including the development of a new company, ensures organizations can benefit from the innovation and agility of the cloud, without compromising on the security, privacy and sovereignty required by the French government,” **said Thomas Kurian, CEO at Google Cloud.**

>“The government's national cloud strategy clearly specifies the state's willingness to use and promote high-performance and trusted cloud offerings. The challenge is to have the widest possible range of solutions compliant with the SecNumCloud repository which details the technical, operational and legal security rules capable of effectively protecting data and processes hosted in a cloud service. ANSSI therefore enthusiastically welcomes this ambitious project that meets these criteria," **said Guillaume Poupard, Director General of the National Information Systems Security Agency (ANSSI.)**

**About Google Cloud**

1. “Hyperscale” refers to cloud computing based on an optimized computing architecture in terms of storage, power, energy consumption and scalability.
2. The Trusted Cloud label will offer a double level of security – both legal and technical – and will allow French companies and administrations to benefit from the best cloud services. Some of the world’s most efficient cloud services are published by non-European companies: these services will also be eligible for the label under certain conditions, notably concerning the entity operating these services and the location of the data.
