TCS Unveils SovereignSecure Cloud for Govt and Public Sector Enterprises

TCS, the IT services behemoth, announced three powerful India-focused offerings on Thursday, including an indigenous and secure cloud for government and public sector enterprises, with the goal of strengthening the country's data sovereignty and accelerating AI capabilities.

TCS SovereignSecure Cloud is designed to keep sensitive data within India's borders by leveraging the company's data centres in the Mumbai and Hyderabad availability zones.

The Tata Group also introduced TCS DigiBOLT, an AI-enabled low-code platform, and its globally recognized Cyber Defense Suite in India, which the company claims will enable enterprises to accelerate their digital innovation and cyber resilience.

The offerings include SovereignSecure Cloud, a first-of-its-kind, indigenous, and secure cloud for government and public sector enterprises that strengthens India's data sovereignty and accelerates its AI capabilities.

This cloud includes integrated AI capabilities to help government institutions, public sector enterprises, and regulated industries.

"It reinforces India's commitment to data, operational, and digital sovereignty, while also accelerating its leadership in AI innovation," the company stated.

This offering provides dedicated infrastructure designed to enable compliance with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act of 2023, and is based on the principles of sovereignty, security, and sustainability, with AI at its core, according to TCS.

India's largest IT services company said it is doubling down on its commitment to the country's digital growth by launching three India-focused offerings that are sovereign by design, secure by default, and future-proof.

"This launch marks the beginning of many such offerings tailored for India's unique needs, as TCS dedicates itself to supporting the country's mission of building robust digital solutions that are made in India, for India, and are ready for the world," according to the news release.

TCS's 'Accelerating India' event in New Delhi served as the launch location. TCS Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director K Krithivasan, Girish Ramachandran, President Growth Markets, senior TCS leaders, and prominent Indian customers attended the event.

Girish Ramachandran, President Growth Markets, stated that India is at a tipping point where data sovereignty, AI, and digital acceleration are combining to create unprecedented opportunities.

"These new offerings, which are tailored to India's specific needs, reaffirm our commitment to establishing a secure, AI-powered digital foundation for India that not only protects national assets but also fuels innovation, economic growth, and global competitiveness."

"As India moves towards a new era of digital innovation, TCS will continue to lead with indigenous solutions that empower governments, enterprises, and citizens alike, helping them perpetually adapt in an AI-first era," according to him.
