Sovereign cloud

Sovereignty & security

A sovereign cloud is an infrastructure hosted and operated within a framework guaranteeing technological independence, legal security and control over data, out of reach of extraterritorial regulations such as the US Cloud Act. In France, ANSSI's SecNumCloud certification is the reference, carried by players like OVHcloud, 3DS OUTSCALE and Scaleway.

In practice at Gensai

Gensai favours sovereign deployments for sensitive sectors, such as the compliance assistant hosted on a sovereign RAG.
