Lintasarta Cloudeka’s Deka Sovereign Cloud is a cloud service based on virtualization technology that uses a framework to strengthen the cloud architecture so that it can comply with Indonesian regulatory standards and business regulations. This service also helps users to have control over the location of data that is strengthened by stricter security protocols.
