Microsoft is pushing the AUKUS trio – Australia, the UK, and the US – to update cross-border info collaboration, and - of course - it has just the thing: the classified Azure Government Cloud.
The call was made by Scott Gills, program manager in defense and intelligence for Microsoft, and noted the need for the three English-speaking nations to collaborate securely in light of the specter of Software Defined Warfare.
Gills rattled off a list of capabilities needed by AUKUS partners, from collaborating through familiar tools, analytics, and decision-making to research and innovation.
As a reminder: a large chunk of Microsoft’s cloud in Australia fell over in August, an incident attributed - in part - to a lack of staff on site.
AUKUS is all about defense capability and cooperation between the three countries and the most notable result so far has been around nuclear submarines with contracts recently signed off for the design and purchase of long-lead items for a new generation of underwater predators.
While lead times measured in years - or decades - might be all well and good for something like a nuclear submarine, it’s less than ideal in the fast-moving cybersecurity landscape.
