For Enterprise Security & Procurement
Your data. Your cloud. Your rules.
Best-in-class cloud-hosted software is secure by default with Nuon powered BYOC.
The BYOC Model
Bring Your Own Cloud, explained
There are three ways to consume software. Vendors often force compromise. BYOC doesn't, and gets you through procurement faster.
Traditional SaaS
Vendor hosts everything. Your data lives in their environment, governed by their security policies. You get convenience but sacrifice control.
Self-Hosted
You do all the work. Full control, but your team bears the burden of deployment, upgrades, monitoring, and incident response.
BYOC
Vendor deploys and manages software in YOUR cloud account. You get the managed service experience with full data control and security.
Why BYOC
Three reasons enterprises are switching to BYOC
Data Sovereignty
Your data stays in your VPC. No exceptions. Meet data residency requirements without complex DPAs or cross-border transfer agreements.
Security Posture
Eliminate cross-account access. Vendors operate through egress-only connections within your permission boundaries. Zero standing credentials.
Compliance Simplification
SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, FedRAMP — when software runs in your account, it inherits your existing compliance controls and audit infrastructure.
Once you get one BYOC app, you want them all
When enterprises deploy their first BYOC application, something shifts. They see the security benefits, the compliance simplification, the control. Then they start asking every vendor the same question: "Can you deploy this in our cloud?"
This is BYOC gravity — and it's reshaping how enterprises buy software.
Vendor Evaluation
Five questions every enterprise should ask their software vendors
Can you deploy your software in a cloud account we own?
This could be your existing cloud account or a dedicated one provisioned for you — as long as your organization holds ownership. Vendor access for management is fine; vendor ownership is not.
What permissions do you need, and can we revoke them?
Vendors should request only the minimum permissions required and support customer-controlled permission granting and revocation.
Do you support egress-only architecture?
Your infrastructure should never have inbound connections from the vendor. The deployment agent calls out; the vendor never calls in.
How do you handle audit logging and change management?
Every deployment, configuration change, and access event should be logged, exportable, and available for your SIEM integration.
What compliance frameworks does your BYOC deployment support?
SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, FedRAMP, PCI DSS — your vendor should be able to map their BYOC deployment to your compliance requirements.
