NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCIA) has awarded a contract to a consortium formed by Thales, a global leader in high technology, and Proximus, Belgium's leading telecommunications provider.

This strategic partnership will operate and manage some key infrastructure elements for NCIA's business network, ensuring enhanced resilience, security, and operational efficiency across five NCIA locations.

The infrastructure will be supported using cloud based technology, providing NCIA's personnel with highly secure and efficient access to essential IT services, facilitating real-time communication, collaboration and data management across multiple sites.

This modernisation is an opportunity to enhance capacity, improve compatibility, and upgrade systems to ensure optimal performance.

Under the terms of the contract, Thales and Proximus will deliver a fully managed service, providing:

infrastructure as a service (IaaS) on a certified and accredited cloud;

end-user devices as a service (DaaS) for personnel;

robust cybersecurity solutions, ensuring a highly secure digital environment;

advanced networking capabilities at NCIA sites for seamless connectivity;

comprehensive platform administration services;

scalable cloud services for secure storage and high-performance computing.

Thales is providing a secure cloud infrastructure and a fully managed service, while Proximus is delivering a secure multi-domain laptop and is upgrading the Wi-Fi networks at The Hague and Braine L'Alleud, as well as enabling a high speed connection to their Cloud for 5,000 users at NCIA sites.

Together with Proximus, Thales reaffirms its commitment to strengthening NATO's digital resilience, ensuring secure, high-performance and future-proof IT infrastructure to support the Alliance's evolving needs. By outsourcing commodity services to trusted industry leaders, NCIA is taking a forward-looking approach that ensures a fully managed, secure, and scalable solution. said Alex Bottero, VP Network and Infrastructure Systems, Thales.

This strategic project reflects our commitment to providing cutting-edge connectivity, mobility, and security solutions. We are proud that Proximus has been chosen for this large-scale project, which will enable NATO to strengthen its digital capabilities with a secure and scalable infrastructure. Thanks to our collaboration with Thales, we are confident that we will be able to meet NCIAs needs and support its essential missions. adds Anne-Sophie Lotgering, Enterprise Market Lead at Proximus.

With stringent performance metrics and service level agreements (SLAs) in place, this solution will guarantee high availability, security and operational stability for NCIA's ecosystem.
