Northforge brings hands-on experience from Australia’s most demanding SECRET and on-premises Defence environments — applied to the design, accreditation and operation of modern sovereign cloud platforms for Defence, Defence Industry, Federal Government and National Security organisations.
We’ve worked where most vendors will never go — air-gapped SECRET networks, classified on-prem infrastructure, mission-critical systems where failure is not an option.
That experience is what makes our cloud work different. When Northforge designs a PROTECTED Azure environment or configures an M365 tenant for a Defence programme, we bring the same security discipline and operational rigour developed at SECRET. Most cloud vendors have never worked inside a classified environment. We have — and that changes everything about how we design, accredit and operate secure platforms.
Our team has designed and operated SECRET-level on-premises Defence environments — air-gapped networks, hardened classified infrastructure, mission-critical systems. That depth informs every PROTECTED platform, every accreditation artefact, every governance decision we make.
Northforge delivers sovereign digital capability across Defence, Defence Industry, Federal Government and National Security — and operates as a specialist subcontractor within prime contractor consortia. We are happy to partner with primes.
