NATO Partners with Google Cloud for Sovereign AI Security

Nov. 25, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — A multi-million-dollar contract between NATO and Google Cloud for a secure, AI-enabled sovereign cloud solution  involves the NATO Communication and Information Agency (NCIA) selecting Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) air-gapped to modernise its infrastructure, specifically supporting the Joint Analysis, Training and Education Centre (JATEC).
