The agreement promises NATO "uncompromised data residency and operational controls, providing the highest degree of security and autonomy, regardless of scale or complexity," the statement said."
"Antonio Calderon, chief technology officer, NCIA, said the deal would enhance NATO's operational capabilities and safeguard the alliance's digital environment. "Partnership with industry is a critical component of our digital transformation strategy. Through this collaboration, we will deliver a secure, resilient and scalable cloud environment for JATEC that meets the highest standards required to protect highly sensitive data," he said."
