Safe cloud for Germany's administration: Delos and D-Trust in the alliance!

Deutschland - In 2025, Delos Cloud GmbH will offer a safe cloud platform especially for German administration. This new platform not only promises technological sovereignty, but also meets the strict requirements of the Bundesamt für Sicherheit in Information Technology (BSI) Data protection and secret protection. Protection takes place via digital certificates of the D-Trust GmbH The provision of TLS certificates has been received.

The Delos Cloud is aimed exclusively at public clients in Germany, including federal, state and local administrations as well as numerous authorities and institutions under public law. The integration of existing Microsoft services as well as SAP applications and other software solutions is made possible in the platform.

technological sovereignty and security

A central feature of the Delos Cloud is technical sovereignty. All customer data remains in data centers within Germany, which are operated by security staff. Telemetetried data and external data exchange are controlled by the BSI to ensure high data security. The cloud platform is designed in such a way that it remains functional even without software updates in the event of a crisis. This is supported by a physical separation from Microsoft, which guarantees independent management.

In addition, the Delos Cloud pursues legal sovereignty by falling under German law. Therefore, the German jurisdiction applies to the platform. The new cloud solution is not only a technical, but also a legal foundation for the security of the public administration data.

Integration into the digitization strategy

The Delos Cloud integrates seamlessly into the German Administrative Cloud Strategy (DVS). This enables active and safe use of cloud services in the federal administration, as is emphasized in the report "The situation of IT security in Germany 2023" of the BSI. The continued digitization and the associated cyber attacks are a serious threat to IT systems. The BSI area therefore sees cloud computing as a backbone of digitization of public administration.

The Delos Cloud also plans to provide the first services from 2025, including Microsoft Office 365, and offers preparatory measures such as public simulation and tailor -made training offers. These steps support public-law institutions to move safely in the cloud and minimize risks.
