Drawing on Obrela’s experience managing complex cyber incidents and supporting national-level assurance programmes, Sebastian Bocquier, Head of DFIR, will present a practical, mission-ready framework that shifts accreditation from a static, one-time checkpoint to a continuous assurance capability embedded throughout NATO’s cloud ecosystem.
Key themes of the discussion:
Embedding assurance into cloud-native workflows
Zero Trust as a foundational architecture
Sovereign cloud principles for national control
Continuous monitoring for real-time assurance
Aligning DevSecOps practices with accreditation needs
Building assurance at mission tempo
The NATO Cloud Conference serves as a critical forum for addressing these challenges collectively. Sebastian’s contribution will highlight actionable and operationally grounded methods enabling NATO to:
Deploy cloud capabilities at mission speed
Strengthen cyber resilience through continuous validation
Preserve sovereign oversight across diverse architectures
Mitigate risks introduced by rapid capability delivery
His presentation aims to support the evolution of a cloud environment where security assurance scales in step with NATO’s operational demands—enabling a sovereign, resilient and agile cloud posture across the Alliance.
