NxtGen partners with Thales to deliver defence-grade security for India's sovereign cloud

In a move that could reshape the way Indian enterprises think about data security, NxtGen Cloud Technologies has joined hands with global cybersecurity powerhouse Thales. The goal? To bring defense-grade security to India’s sovereign cloud—at a time when the stakes have never been higher.

This strategic alliance merges NxtGen’s robust sovereign cloud infrastructure with Thales’ world-class expertise in cybersecurity and digital identity. Together, they’re not just responding to threats—they’re setting a new gold standard for cloud security across sectors that power India’s economy.

As cyber threats grow more sophisticated and regulatory demands tighten, businesses can no longer settle for conventional cloud solutions. They need infrastructure that meets the rigor of national security—and this partnership delivers exactly that. It’s not just future-ready; it’s quantum-ready.

Why this partnership matters: Key differentiators
Defense-Grade Security, Now on Indian Soil
Thales’ cybersecurity technologies, trusted by governments and defense agencies worldwide, will now secure NxtGen’s sovereign cloud infrastructure. That means comprehensive encryption, sovereign key management, and AI-powered threat detection—all housed within India’s borders. This isn’t just security—it’s national-grade assurance.

Future-Proofing with Post-Quantum Cryptography
Quantum computing isn’t science fiction anymore—and with it comes the threat of quantum decryption. That’s why NxtGen and Thales are taking a proactive leap into Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), helping Indian enterprises protect sensitive data today, and tomorrow.

True Sovereignty, No Asterisks
Where global hyperscalers are bound by laws like the U.S. CLOUD Act and FISA 702, this alliance stands apart. All data, keys, and infrastructure stay within India—legally and operationally. No backdoors, no foreign oversight, no compromises.

Built for the Regulated World
From banks to public sector giants, regulated industries face a unique set of challenges. This partnership embeds compliance with RBI, SEBI, IRDAI, MeitY, and Cert-In requirements right into the cloud infrastructure. With Thales’ Hardware Security Modules (HSMs), lifecycle key management, and zero-trust architecture, enterprises get peace of mind, by design.

AI Workloads, Secured at Scale
As AI goes mainstream, so do its risks. NxtGen’s SpeedCloud AI platform, now fortified with Thales’ cryptographic and access control technologies, offers a secure foundation for AI workloads—scalable, compliant, and ready for real-world impact.
