Simplifying Secure Multi-Cloud Networking for AI

AI introduces additional complexity through:

• Large volumes of data moving between clouds and regions.
• Distributed model training and inference.
• Containers, Kubernetes clusters and serverless services.
• AI agents interacting with systems and data.
• Greater requirements for encryption, segmentation and policy control.

Aviatrix secures the network traffic connecting AI data sources, training environments, models and applications across multi-cloud environments.

Key capabilities include:

• High-performance encryption: Protects data in transit between clouds, regions and AI environments, with encryption throughput of up to 100 Gbps cloud-to-cloud and up to 1 Tbps data-center-to-cloud—eliminating the trade-off between security and performance.
• Network segmentation and workload containment: Separates workloads from one another, enforcing explicit communication governance at every workload—governing what it can reach and what can reach it—to limit unauthorized access and reduce blast radius.
• Detection-independent enforcement: Applies security policies that hold before, during, and after a breach—without requiring that the breach first be detected. Policy enforcement is architectural, not reactive.
• Centralised and distributed security: Consistent policy management across cloud environments, with enforcement at the workload, not at a centralised chokepoint. Includes firewalling, micro-segmentation, intrusion detection and threat prevention.

Sensitive data encrypted today could potentially be decrypted in the future by sufficiently powerful quantum computers.
Aviatrix Cloud Native Security Fabric’s post-quantum cryptography capabilities support a one-click transition to post-quantum algorithms without requiring application changes. This approach is intended to improve crypto-agility and simplify future migration.

In addition to securing the network that AI workloads depend on, organisations should also review their existing multi-cloud networking approach. Some common challenges faced by organisations expanding across multiple cloud providers are:

• Unpredictable cloud costs
• Increasing management complexity
• Fragmented security and governance policies
• Limited visibility across cloud resources
• Complex connectivity between clouds, offices and data centres

Creating a new cloud service can also take days when it requires action across multiple teams and tools, limiting agility.

Orange Business and Aviatrix address these challenges through a centralised, software-defined platform for managing, monitoring, and securing cloud connectivity—a single policy plane that replaces fragmented, cloud-by-cloud approaches.

As AI workloads multiply across clouds, organizations need to see how AI applications communicate and enforce policy on those connections. Aviatrix delivers:

• Traffic visibility — see how AI applications communicate across clouds, identify unusual patterns, and map AI-to-AI and AI-to-data dependencies
• Policy enforcement — govern AI workload connections with the same identity-aware, detection-independent enforcement applied to every other workload
• Faster incident response — investigate potential security risks across AI environments with operational insight that traditional monitoring cannot provide
• Centralised policy with distributed security: Enables consistent policy management across cloud environments while enforcing controls closer to workloads, including firewalling, micro-segmentation, intrusion detection and threat prevention.

Orange Business and Aviatrix combine cloud-native networking and security with global connectivity, managed services and specialist expertise. They provide a secure, scalable foundation for multi-cloud and AI workloads—built on Aviatrix Cloud Native Security Fabric, the only architecture that governs every workload communication path across every cloud from a single policy plane.

Together, they help provide the following benefits to organisations: 

1. Reduce total cost of ownership

Efficient traffic management and Aviatrix’s cloud-native capabilities help optimise network usage and avoid unnecessary costs. Real-time visibility into cloud resources and consumption also supports more accurate financial planning.

2. Simplify connectivity with Orange Evolution Platform

The Orange Evolution Platform infrastructure provides secure connectivity between public clouds, offices, data centres and existing SASE environments. It hosts Aviatrix in more than 40 locations globally and can integrate AI workloads with existing offices, data centres, SD-WAN and security environments. This allows Aviatrix to be deployed without additional hardware, with flexible monthly billing supporting different commercial and operating models.

This makes it easier to connect and manage cloud environments during transformation projects, including mergers and acquisitions.

3. Improve operational control with visibility and enforcement

As part of its standard managed capability, Orange Business can provide ongoing monitoring, service oversight and operational support across the cloud networking environment. 

Orange Business can also extend traffic visibility and policy enforcement across connected SD-WAN, LAN, and cloud networking environments. This provides a more proactive approach to managing multi-cloud connectivity while helping organisations improve resilience and service quality.

4. End-to-End Expertise

Orange Business can support the full cloud networking lifecycle, from design and deployment through to operation and optimisation. Organisations can choose from self-service, co-managed and fully managed operating models.

Local consulting, project management and engineering teams are supported by specialist expertise across the globe.

By combining Aviatrix’s cloud-native networking and security capabilities with Orange Business connectivity, managed services and cybersecurity expertise, organisations can create a centralised, observable and scalable environment for AI and multi-cloud workloads.

The result is a simpler way to connect, secure and manage cloud infrastructure while retaining the flexibility to adapt as business and technology requirements evolve.
