KDDI has introduced the “KDDI Encryption Key Management Service for Google Cloud.” This service helps Japanese organizations securely manage their confidential data on the cloud. It also ensures they maintain full control over their data sovereignty. The service uses Google Cloud’s “Assured Workloads” to keep data in Japan. KDDI and IRET manage the encryption keys. The solution splits the roles of the cloud service provider and the key management entity. This approach improves compliance, boosts security, and enhances operational transparency.
This initiative addresses rising worries about data governance, regulatory compliance, and geopolitical risks. Remote work and digital changes are speeding up cloud use. Companies now feel more pressure to protect sensitive data. They must also control where and how this data is stored. KDDI tackles these challenges with a sovereign cloud model. This model ensures data, operational, and technological sovereignty.
