Luxembourg and Clarence Partner on Sovereign Disconnected Cloud
Luxembourg, January 23, 2025 – The Luxembourg government and Clarence, a leading provider of sovereign cloud solutions, today announced a partnership to develop a sovereign disconnected cloud that will provide Luxembourg with a secure and reliable infrastructure for its critical data and services.
The sovereign disconnected cloud will be tailored to meet the specific needs of Luxembourg, including the ability to operate independently from external networks and systems. This will ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of Luxembourg’s data and services, even in the event of a cyberattack or other disruption.
The cloud will be based on Clarence’s Secure Cloud Platform (SCP), which has been certified by several international standards organizations, including ISO 27001, ISO 27018, and PCI DSS. The SCP provides a high level of security and compliance, making it an ideal platform for storing and processing sensitive data.
The partnership between Luxembourg and Clarence is part of Luxembourg’s broader efforts to strengthen its cybersecurity posture. The country has been a leader in the development of cybersecurity regulations and policies, and it is recognized as one of the most secure countries in the world.
“We are pleased to partner with Clarence to develop a sovereign disconnected cloud that will help us protect our critical data and services,” said Xavier Bettel, Prime Minister of Luxembourg. “This partnership is a testament to our commitment to cybersecurity and to providing our citizens with the highest level of protection.”
“We are honored to have been selected by Luxembourg to partner on this important project,” said Serge Danyo, CEO of Clarence. “Our Secure Cloud Platform is the ideal solution for Luxembourg’s needs, and we look forward to working with the government to develop a sovereign disconnected cloud that will meet the country’s specific requirements.”
The sovereign disconnected cloud is expected to be completed by 2027. It will be used by a variety of government agencies, including the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Health.
