Sovereign Infrastructure, Built and Operated Locally
Foreign cloud providers cannot guarantee data sovereignty or national security, whatever the region label on the contract. Net0 builds the data centres, compute, and security systems inside your jurisdiction, and hands your authority the keys.

What sovereign means here
Locally Built
Infrastructure designed and deployed in-country.
Government-Controlled
Complete ownership and operational authority.
Accountable
One named team, answerable to your mandate.
Deployment Model
From Site Selection to Handover
Sovereignty is decided by the practical details: where the racks sit, who holds the keys, and which team runs the platform on a Tuesday night.
Deployed on Your Estate
Hardware is commissioned in a government facility or a national data centre you nominate, with your engineers present through installation and acceptance.
Operated by the Team You Choose
Run it with your own staff after training, hand day-to-day operations to Net0 under mandate, or split responsibilities in a hybrid model agreed before go-live.
Connected to Systems You Already Run
Secure interfaces link ministerial registries, legacy platforms, and your identity providers without creating a route out of your estate.
Government-Grade Security
Security That Is Tested, Not Asserted
Government systems face cyber attacks, espionage, and insider risk every day. Net0 treats those as design constraints rather than add-ons: controls are specified with your security authority before the first rack is ordered.
Certification Before Go-Live
Independent penetration testing and accreditation against your national framework, with every finding closed out before live workloads arrive.
Incident Command
Escalation paths, response ownership, and reporting duties are written into the operating manual and practised in a joint exercise before the platform opens to users.
Compliance & Auditing
Full audit trails mapped to data protection law and regulator reporting cycles, so evidence is ready when it is requested.
Defense in Depth
01
Physical Security
Controls for the facilities where national infrastructure operates.
02
Network Segmentation
Protected pathways and separated security zones.
03
Encrypted Data
Secure storage and communications across the system.
04
Managed Access
Authority-defined access and identity controls.
05
Continuous Monitoring
Real-time detection, scanning, and response.
Each layer reinforces the next, so a weakness in one never becomes an opening in another.
Engineered for Growth
Infrastructure That Grows With National Needs
AI demand rarely arrives on a predictable curve. Net0 sizes the first deployment to today’s mandate and leaves defined room to grow, so each later step is a planned addition rather than a rebuild.

Future AI demand
Existing capacity remains operational
New capability is added in modules
Sovereignty and security remain constant
Procured in Increments
Capacity is bought in modules that fit annual budget cycles and procurement rules, so growth follows approvals instead of waiting on them.
Ready for What Comes Next
New accelerator generations, model formats, and revised security baselines are absorbed through open standards rather than migrations.
Continuity Under Pressure
Redundant power, failover sites, and rehearsed recovery plans keep citizen-facing services running through outages, incidents, and maintenance windows.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't governments use commercial cloud providers like AWS or Azure?
Commercial cloud providers operate infrastructure across multiple jurisdictions, making true data sovereignty impossible. Even with "local regions," data, backups, and encryption keys may be accessible by foreign entities or subject to foreign laws. Sovereign infrastructure ensures complete government control with zero external access.
How quickly can sovereign infrastructure be operational?
Deployment timelines range from 6-18 months depending on scale and security requirements. This includes site preparation, hardware deployment, security certification, system integration, and operational testing. Net0 works within government procurement processes while ensuring infrastructure meets national security standards before going live.
Who operates and maintains the infrastructure after deployment?
Net0 provides three options: full operations and maintenance by Net0 teams, knowledge transfer and training for government staff to operate independently, or a hybrid model with Net0 handling critical systems while government teams manage day-to-day operations.
Can sovereign infrastructure integrate with existing government systems?
Yes. Sovereign infrastructure is designed to connect with legacy systems, ministerial databases, and existing IT infrastructure through secure interfaces. Net0 ensures compatibility while maintaining security and sovereignty requirements throughout integration.
Has Net0 deployed sovereign infrastructure for other governments?
Net0 has deployed sovereign AI infrastructure for government clients in the Middle East and is currently working with national governments on infrastructure projects. Specific client details remain confidential due to security agreements, but reference discussions can be arranged.
