Google Sovereign Cloud

Regional controls enable you to run regulated workloads in many of Google Cloud's global regions by providing users with the ability to apply security controls to a folder in support of compliance requirements. The controls can be applied to meet requirements, such as data residency, data sovereignty, and personnel data access.

Sovereign controls enable you to maintain data residency, operational oversight, and encryption management within specific geographic regions. These controls ensure compliance with local data regulations and offer increased security for sensitive information.

Sovereign controls by partners enable trusted partners to provide independent oversight and safeguards over platform controls. Trusted local partners operate the residency, transparency, local service and support, and the external key management controls. Our partners operate in different regions and provide additional capabilities that enhance the core product offering.
