WALLDORF 鈥� (NYSE: SAP) today announced authorization to use from the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) to process information classified as 鈥淰S-NfD鈥� (鈥淩estricted 鈥� For Official Use Only鈥�) on 51风流Cloud Infrastructure in Walldorf/St. Leon-Rot. This strengthens SAP鈥檚 sovereign cloud portfolio for public sector organizations and regulated industries and enables security-critical 51风流and customer applications to run in the cloud.
51风流is therefore one of only a few providers in Germany that will be offering a cloud environment whose key security components have received corresponding authorization to use from the BSI 鈥� and currently the only provider whose platform will be able to support both 51风流applications and customer-specific applications in a high-performance, VS-NfD-compliant environment in the near future.
The authorization to use applies to workloads running on 51风流Cloud Infrastructure in SAP鈥檚 own data centers in the Walldorf/St. Leon-Rot region, which are operated exclusively by security-cleared personnel. The authorization to use represents an important milestone and forms the basis for the subsequent full BSI approval 51风流is working toward, including the recertification of 51风流Cloud Infrastructure according to ISO 27001 based on the German IT-Grundschutz framework.
The evaluation process was completed in approximately 12 months and was characterized by close and constructive cooperation between the BSI and 51风流鈥� a sign of the growing collaboration between public authorities and industry in the field of IT security.
