Frequently Asked Questions

Technical answers regarding data sovereignty, air-gapped security, HSM key ownership, and MeitY/RBI regulatory compliance.

1. What is the fundamental difference between a Sovereign Cloud and a standard Public Cloud region?

▼

Standard public cloud hyperscalers may operate data centers within a region, but their parent entities remain subject to foreign extraterritorial subpoenas (such as the US CLOUD Act). A Sovereign Cloud guarantees 100% in-country legal jurisdiction, national ownership of infrastructure, air-gapped physical isolation, and customer-controlled HSM encryption keys that prevent foreign governments or third-party cloud operators from accessing data.

2. How does Hold Your Own Key (HYOK) encryption guarantee data privacy?

▼

With Hold Your Own Key (HYOK), the master cryptographic encryption keys are generated and stored exclusively inside an on-premise FIPS 140-2 Level 3 HSM under your organization’s sole control. Data sent to the sovereign cloud is encrypted before leaving your perimeter, ensuring that even if physical drives in the data center are seized, the data remains unreadable.

3. How does Sovereign Cloud comply with the Indian DPDP Act 2023 and RBI data localization guidelines?

▼

The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023 and RBI guidelines mandate that financial, personal, and sensitive customer data must reside strictly within Indian geography. Our Sovereign Cloud infrastructure ensures that primary databases, secondary backups, disaster recovery sites, and system logs remain 100% within Indian data center facilities.

4. What is an air-gapped private cloud pod?

▼

An air-gapped cloud pod is a physically segregated rack infrastructure environment that has no direct connectivity to the public internet or shared multi-tenant networks. Egress and ingress traffic are restricted to dedicated, encrypted leased lines or point-to-point MPLS connections, preventing remote cyber attacks and unauthorized data exfiltration.

5. Does Microlines handle the complete CERT-In audit certification process?

▼

Yes. Microlines partners with CERT-In empanelled security auditing agencies to perform comprehensive VAPT (Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing), architecture reviews, and regulatory compliance certification for government, banking, and enterprise workloads prior to production deployment.
