GCC High

One of the most highly-sought solutions within the defense contracting community, is the Microsoft GCC High cloud offering as it secures the top regulations for doing business with the government, including DFARS, CMMC, NIST 800-53, 171, GDPR, ITAR and FISMA, among others.

It meets the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) High baseline and DoD Impact Level 4 and 5 requirements of the DoD and contractors handling sensitive information. It is particularly of interest to the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) for CMMC requirements, as GCC High meets compliance standards, such as NIST SP 800-53, FISMA, the Security Assessment Framework (SAF), and continuous monitoring, among others.

It is perhaps most known for Data Residency as GCC High ensures that customer data remains within the United States, addressing GDPR, CUI and ITAR concerns about data sovereignty and compliance with government regulations. It also directly supports government contracts and projects that require compliance with specific security and regulatory requirements.
