From late majority to early adopters: The value of SAP NS2 Government Cloud

From late majority to early adopters: The value of SAP NS2 Government Cloud

When it comes to the innovation adoption curve, government, defense industrial base, critical infrastructure, and other security-sensitive sectors often fall within the late majority, but this isn’t by choice.

Security-sensitive industries are bound by rigorous compliance requirements, long deployment cycles, and constrained budgets, which are regulated and mandated by their overarching industries.

For two decades, SAP NS2 has been securing and delivering innovation curated for these highly regulated customers. We were founded with a mission of providing technology to the agencies and organizations that need more than the standard commercial offering.

As an independent, U.S. subsidiary of SAP that delivers SAP solutions and AI capabilities exclusively with U.S. citizens operating on U.S. soil, we empower agencies to drive efficiency, operational performance, and modernization without compromising trust.

The SAP NS2 Government Cloud is designed to deploy the latest AI and cloud solutions for government-aligned customers across multiple industries and mission environments. The cloud is U.S. operated, solely maintained on U.S. soil, and configured and secured for the compliance requirements of U.S. government and regulated industries.

SAP NS2 Government Cloud addresses key challenges of operational and technological risk, including foreign influence and geopolitical disruptions.

With our cloud, CIOs no longer have to choose between continuing operations on outdated infrastructure or assuming the risk of a foreign technology stack. SAP NS2 Government Cloud ensures data access, data residency, and data security practices are embedded across all cloud services. This means customers know who handles their data, where their data lives, and what frameworks are protecting their data, because everything is based in the U.S.

SAP is the world’s largest provider of enterprise application software, with 98 of the 100 largest companies in the world running on SAP. For more than 50 years, organizations have trusted the innovation of SAP to run operations.

SAP NS2 Government Cloud is the only FedRAMP certified cloud that delivers this trusted innovation to the U.S. government, and other highly regulated customers, that require the protection of controlled unclassified information (CUI) and Federal Contract Information (FCI). With capabilities spanning unclassified, classified, Secret, and Top Secret levels, we ensure control, accountability, and protection for our customer’s data through the SAP NS2 Government Cloud.

While highly regulated sectors may not be considered early adopters when it comes to emerging technology, SAP NS2 is helping to address that adoption gap. Our cloud delivers solutions with the oversight, governance, and auditability needed, so customers don’t have to take on risk to be considered innovative.

When compliance is needed from day one, the SAP NS2 Government Cloud is the choice.
