secunet, Germany's leading cybersecurity company, provides sovereign cloud services for the Bundesdruckerei Group, the German federal government's technology company. These are offered in particular to public authorities and administrations with high availability requirements. The scalable Infrastructure-as-a-Service solution from secunet subsidiary and cloud-native specialist SysEleven provides a solid basis for the operation of Bundesdruckerei's established development and operating platform.

 

"The successful integration of the secunet solutions is an important step for Bundesdruckerei's cloud strategy," says Dr Stefan Hofschen, CEO of Bundesdruckerei Gruppe GmbH. "As a technology company for the German federal government, we want to offer our customers with high availability requirements a secure, resilient and consistently structured system architecture in the sense of security by design." With the solutions that have now become possible, the company will be able to act faster on the market, scale more easily and offer customers from the public and private sectors modern applications with full data control based on a sovereign cloud infrastructure. "The collaboration between secunet and Bundesdruckerei on sovereign cloud offerings facilitates the secure migration to cloud technologies," says Hofschen.

The joint offering fulfils the requirements of authorities and companies for a modern infrastructure, digital sovereignty and national security interests. It stands for the cooperation partners' many years of experience in the development and operation of trustworthy solutions.

"Our investments in the development of sovereign cloud solutions for public administration through the expansion of our open source-based platform and comprehensive certifications have led to market-ready solutions," explains Axel Deininger, CEO of secunet. "This is demonstrated by our cooperation with Bundesdruckerei. With over 25 years of experience in IT security, we provide a modern IT infrastructure that meets particularly high standards in terms of data and identity protection."

The public cloud offering is now available for public authorities and companies that require a secure cloud solution for critical workloads.
Norbert Müller, Vice President Cloud Solutions at secunet and Managing Director of SysEleven, adds: "Our cloud and cloud-native solutions are designed in such a way that we can customise them to meet the individual needs of our clients. Bundesdruckerei is already using first IT infrastructure components in our modern, powerful and sustainable data centres. We and Bundesdruckerei are thus making a decisive contribution to Germany's digital sovereignty."
