The Thales and Google Cloud collaboration addresses the needs of organizations around the world that are facing ever-increasing security, sovereignty, and performance requirements for their cloud deployments. With many years of cybersecurity expertise, Thales provides the level of trust and security required for customers around the world to move to the cloud, while maintaining the necessary level of control. By combining Thales’ platform expertise with Google Cloud’s enterprise-grade solutions and cutting-edge infrastructure, the two companies work closely on a number of broad data security initiatives.
Thales, in its constant search of excellence in its security portfolio, recently announced a new collaboration to develop data security capabilities and bring additional AI-powered features to users of its CipherTrust Data Security platform. This is powered by Google Cloud’s Vertex AI machine learning capabilities, to discover, classify and protect sensitive data in the cloud. The machine learning functionality helps to automate fundamental tasks for customers and ensure their sensitive cloud-hosted data remains protected.
Since late 2022, Thales’ CipherTrust Cloud Key Manager has also supported Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) initiatives, including those for Google Cloud and Google Workspace. Thales and Google Cloud have also collaborated to operate a sovereign cloud joint venture (S3NS) for Google Cloud customers in France who seek to meet stringent data sovereignty requirements, such as those applicable to state and critical infrastructure organizations.
Thales has built a structured cloud offering for companies that want to meet the most demanding data protection standards. In France, S3NS, the joint venture between Thales and Google Cloud, aims to offer French companies and public institutions a solution providing the equivalent of Google Cloud , compliant with the “SecNumCloud” label, a certification from the French information systems security agency (ANSSI). To date, SecNumCloud has the highest level of protection in France, excluding the protection of national defense secrets, and in Europe. S3NS has a first offering already available that offers additional guarantees & controls, such as data location in Europe and external encryption managed by S3NS (based on Thales technology).
“Google Cloud’s partner awards recognize the significant impact and customer success that our partners have driven over the past year," said Kevin Ichhpurani, Corporate Vice President, Global Ecosystem and Channels at Google Cloud. "We're delighted to recognize Thales as a 2023 Google Cloud Partner Award winner, and look forward to a continued strong partnership in support of our mutual customers."
Sebastien Cano, Senior Vice President of Cloud Protection and Licensing activities at Thales, commented: “We are very proud of our ongoing relationship with Google Cloud and this latest award recognises the brilliant work we’ve been doing with them across a range of projects. Together we are helping customers around the world discover, classify and protect their data more efficiently, and ensure their move to the cloud is as secure and compliant as possible.”
Thales is also participating at Google Cloud Next, which is taking place from 29-31 August 2023. Some of the sessions include:
- Keys to the Kingdom: Everything you need to know about your encryption keys with Todd Moore, VP Encryption Products at Thales
- Cybersecurity Innovations from leading ISVs with Google Gen AI with Ashvin Kamaraju, VP Data Protection Engineering at Thales

Brenus Pharma Presented New Preclinical and Early Clinical Data in Colorectal Cancer During AACR Immuno-Oncology Conference 202619.2.2026 09:50:00 EET | Press release
Brenus Pharma, a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering in vivo “off-the-shelf” immunotherapies, announced the selection of an abstract for a poster presentation at the American Association for Cancer Research Immuno-Oncology (AACRIO) annual conference (February 18-21, 2026), in Los Angeles. The poster showcases new preclinical data and early clinical insights from the company's lead candidate, STC-1010, supporting it as a promising therapeutic option for MSS, immune-cold colorectal cancer (CRC)—a major unmet clinical need. In a syngeneic CT26 model, murine STC-1010 significantly inhibits tumor growth and extends survival by 40%. New mechanistic datas reveal expansion of CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T cells in draining lymph nodes alongside a significant humoral response compared to control, demonstrating coordinated cellular and humoral immune activation in vivo. Other findings show that dendritic cells efficiently capture STC-1010, leading to their activation as demonstrated by transcripto
ENHERTU ® Type II Variation Application Validated in the EU as Post-Neoadjuvant Treatment for Patients with HER2 Positive Early Breast Cancer19.2.2026 09:30:00 EET | Press release
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has validated the Type II Variation marketing authorization application for ENHERTU® (trastuzumab deruxtecan) as a monotherapy for adult patients with HER2 positive (immunohistochemistry [IHC] 3+ or in-situ hybridization [ISH]+) breast cancer who have residual invasive disease after neoadjuvant HER2 targeted treatment. ENHERTU is a specifically engineered HER2 directed DXd antibody drug conjugate (ADC) discovered by Daiichi Sankyo (TSE: 4568) and being jointly developed and commercialized by Daiichi Sankyo and AstraZeneca (LSE/STO/NYSE: AZN). The validation confirms the completion of the application and commences the scientific review process by the EMA’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP). The application is based on data from the DESTINY-Breast05 phase 3 trial presented at the 2025 European Society for Medical Oncology (#ESMO25) Congress and subsequently published in The New England Journal of Medicine.
