On August 27, 2025, Oracle and Thales came together for a powerful discussion on one of the most pressing topics in cloud computing today: how to balance innovation with sovereignty, security, and control.
With geopolitical uncertainty, rapid advances in AI, and the looming challenges of quantum computing, organizations are seeking ways to safeguard their data without compromising on agility or access to cutting-edge cloud services. Our webinar explored exactly how Oracle and Thales are addressing this need.
Key Highlights from the Webinar
The session, featuring experts from both Oracle and Thales: Calvin Smith, Muhammad Suhail, Farouk Khan, and Alex Hanway, centered on how enterprises can maintain sovereignty over their data in an increasingly complex regulatory and threat landscape.
- The expansion of “Hold Your Own Key” (HYOK) integrations using OCI Vault Electronic Key Management System, giving customers full control over their encryption keys.
- How enterprises can achieve security without compromise, continuing to innovate while retaining ownership of sensitive data.
- Real-world examples of how these technologies can be deployed across industries with stringent regulatory requirements.
Oracle Dedicated Cloud: Delivered to you, Wherever you Need
Oracle is delivering flexible, sovereign cloud options across its portfolio:
- Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer: A complete OCI public cloud region with 200+ services deployed inside a customer’s data center, operated and managed by Oracle.
- Oracle Alloy: A private-label version of OCI Dedicated Region that partners can operate themselves, offering 200+ OCI services under their own brand, within their own data centers.
These deployment models allow enterprises and partners to run modern cloud services on their own terms, with the same capabilities as the public cloud but under sovereign and regulatory control.
Thales Solutions: Data Security Without Borders
Thales brings its proven expertise in cybersecurity and encryption to complement Oracle’s sovereign cloud approach.
- CipherTrust Cloud Key Management (CCKM): Enables organizations to centralize encryption key management across multi-cloud environments, available to Dedicated Region Cloud@Customer and Alloy.
- By integrating with OCI Vault Electronic Key Managment System, customers gain control of their data, no matter where it resides in public cloud, partner-operated Alloy clouds, or within their own data centers.
Together, Oracle and Thales ensure that enterprises can scale globally while still supporting local sovereignty and compliance requirements.
