Eviden, the Atos Group product brand, leading in cybersecurity products, mission-critical systems and vision AI, announces that it is a launch partner for the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, a new independent cloud for Europe.
Eviden brings to the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, its external key management (EKM) system, which is available now and based on a European sovereign Hardware Security Module (HSM) acting as a root of trust by keeping the master key outside the cloud. This provides an additional level of trust, unlocking even more restricted workloads for customers with the highest sovereignty and compliance requirements, and complements the end-to-end Atos portfolio of sovereign services.
Eviden KMS is now available on the AWS European Sovereign Cloud, further supporting its growing European customer base. Eviden’s solution delivers sovereign-by-design encryption key lifecycle management while providing customers with the same security, availability, and performance they expect from AWS.
The AWS European Sovereign Cloud is a fully featured, independently operated sovereign cloud backed by strong technical controls, sovereign assurances, and legal protections designed to meet the needs of European governments and enterprises. The AWS European Sovereign Cloud infrastructure is entirely located within the EU and operates independently from existing Regions.
The AWS European Sovereign Cloud represents a significant step forward for organizations operating under EU regulatory frameworks. Eviden’s KMS on this independent cloud enables customers to run their most sensitive workloads with operational autonomy and data residency entirely within the EU, without compromising performance. By combining its European sovereign external key management solution with AWS controls and technical assurances, Eviden is delivering the compliance support and innovation customers need to accelerate their digital transformation while meeting stringent regulatory requirements.
The availability of Eviden KMS on the AWS European Sovereign Cloud addresses a critical need for organizations navigating complex regulatory requirements. The combination of operational autonomy within the EU and enterprise-grade capabilities is essential.
Yann Vincent, global head of cybersecurity product, Eviden, Atos Group, said: “At Eviden, we are proud to play a key role in strengthening European digital sovereignty. We help organizations across Europe access the highest levels of trust, autonomy, and control over their data. This reflects our commitment to providing end-to-end sovereign solutions and reinforces Eviden’s position as a leading European player in security and innovation.”
