Google this week announced Assured Workloads for Government, a new Google Cloud service meant to address some of the unique challenges faced by government organizations adopting cloud technologies.

Currently available in private beta, Assured Workloads for Government seeks to simplify the process of configuring applications for compliance, while also ensuring compatibility between commercial and government cloud.

Assured Workloads enables organizations to easily secure and configure sensitive workloads by automatically enforcing necessary cloud controls, Google explains.

"With Assured Workloads for Government, Google Cloud customers can quickly and easily create controlled environments where U.S. data location and personnel access controls are automatically enforced in any of our U.S. cloud regions," Google explains.

Later this year, Google also plans on launching Assured Workloads Support, which will ensure that Premium customers benefit from 24/7 support in the U.S. "Assured Workloads for Government helps reduce the risk and toil of running compliant workloads, without sacrificing functionality, so you can focus on all the other important tasks your business deals with every day," Google notes.
