Germany’s Federal Intelligence Service (Bundesnachrichtendienst, BND), Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz, BfV) and Military Counterintelligence Service (Militärischer Abschirmdienst, MAD) want to use a distributed cloud solution from Google to exchange classified information.
