MICROSOFT GCC
Microsoft GCC is designed for organizations that support DoW requirements and require a secure, compliant Microsoft 365 environment.
We help deploy, secure, and manage GCC environments that support CMMC compliance and the protection of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).
ARE YOU OPERATING
IN THE RIGHT ENVIRONMENT?
Many Defense Industrial Base (DIB) contractors start with commercial Microsoft 365 environments that may not be suitable for handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).
If your organization is preparing for CMMC Level 1 or Level 2 compliance and will handle basic CUI, Microsoft GCC is often a critical step toward strengthening your security posture and supporting federal cybersecurity requirements.
Brea Networks provides Microsoft GCC licensing, secure migration services, and ongoing compliance support to help your organization transition with confidence and align your Microsoft 365 environment with CMMC requirements.
AUTHORIZED OPERATIONAL ASSETS
Secure Email
Encrypted email solutions designed to support CUI Basic and official communications, helping ensure sensitive data is transmitted securely and aligned with DoW requirements.
Secure Collaboration
A controlled collaboration environment for voice, video, chat, and real-time coordination, helping prevent unauthorized access or data leakage during sensitive communications.
Document Management
Centralized file storage with granular access controls to help manage sensitive documents in alignment with DFARS and NIST SP 800-171 requirements.
Identity & Access Control
Zero-trust access controls with multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforcement to ensure only authorized personnel can access critical systems and controlled data.
THE RISK IS CLEAR
“Commercial environments carry a 93% probability of compliance failure during a federal audit.”
If you’re operating in a commercial Microsoft 365 environment, your organization may lack the security controls and compliance capabilities required to protect CUI.
For DIB contractors, Microsoft GCC provides a secure cloud environment designed to support CMMC, NIST SP 800-171, and other federal cybersecurity requirements.
THE FOUNDATION OF COMPLIANCE
Data Sovereignty
Your data remains within U.S.-based Microsoft GCC data centers, supporting federal data residency and compliance requirements.

COMMAND BRIEFING: STRATEGIC INTEL FAQ
Do we need to purchase new Microsoft licenses?
In most cases, yes. Microsoft GCC requires government cloud licensing, such as Microsoft 365 GCC G3/G5. Our team will assess your current licensing and recommend the most cost-effective solution for your organization.
How long does a Microsoft GCC migration take?
Most Microsoft GCC migrations are completed within 4–6 weeks, depending on the size and complexity of your environment. We manage the migration with minimal disruption while supporting CMMC, NIST SP 800-171, and federal cybersecurity requirements.
Who can provides technical support after the migration?
Microsoft GCC restricts administrative access to screened U.S. Persons only, handling both physical data access and technical support. This helps support compliance with NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC requirements.
Will our existing third-party applications continue to work?
Most Microsoft 365 applications and many third-party integrations remain compatible with Microsoft GCC. During the planning phase, we assess your existing applications, identify any compatibility concerns, and develop a migration plan to minimize disruption.
