Planet Knows GCC High

Your trusted partner for secure, scalable Microsoft solutions in regulated environments.

Trusted Experience with GCC High and Secure Microsoft Environments

Planet was one of the first Microsoft-approved AOS-G authorized license resellers for GCC GovCon and GCC High (under 500 seats). With our proven CMMC single solution, we have assisted federal contractors in meeting technological and compliance standards through the use of Microsoft GCC and GCC High solutions, regardless of the size of their business or the type of work they undertake.

Planets experience has assisted clients with extensive and intricate migrations, encompassing all Microsoft functionalities, including Modern Work, Azure, Development, Power Platform, CRM, and Compliance, as well as facilitating straightforward and swift greenfield environments

The Planet Difference

CMMC Compliance starts with GCC High

Your path to CMMC Level 2 begins with the right environment.

The Benefits of GCC High

Microsoft GCC High platform has been proven to be ideal for contractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and/or International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) requirements (e.g., NIST 800-53, DFARS 252.204-7012, DoD SRG L5/4). Planet’s CMMC Solution to Assessment Readiness assists customers in exploring their technology compliance needs through both license programs (AOS-G) and migration/configuration services. As a member of an exclusive authorized partner program, we have direct access to the Microsoft GCC High Product team, staying updated on the latest roadmap features and compliance impacts.

Previously, Microsoft required companies to meet a 500-seat minimum to access the Office 365 GCC High environment. However, with the new AOS-G program, Planet can now provide access to Office 365 GCC High to smaller companies without a 500-license commitment. Over the past two years, even larger agencies have leveraged this program due to its flexibility.

Microsoft 365 Government & GCC High

A secure foundation for storing and managing sensitive government data.

Built to Meet Government Cloud Compliance Standards

Microsoft 365 Government is a suite of productivity, security, and mobility cloud software tailored specifically for U.S. government agencies and contractors authorized to hold controlled unclassified information. Delivered through specialized environments that meet the most stringent compliance requirements, Microsoft 365 Government mirrors the features and capabilities of Microsoft’s commercial cloud enterprise offerings as closely as possible. If you store CUI, CDI, or ITAR-marked data, Microsoft recommends using GCC High to meet DFARS and CUI/ITAR requirements.

To help the U.S. government sector meet compliance, regulatory concerns, and safety protocols, Microsoft developed its government cloud solutions with a commitment to addressing the unique needs of various sectors. The GCC High environment is available only to organizations that have received GCC High Validation through Microsoft. If you need guidance through the validation process, Planet can help!
