Building the future of next-gen businesses

SCION is a next generation internet architecture that gives organizations explicit control over how their data travels across networks.

It enables organizations to define exactly how and where their data travels, which path it uses, and which providers are involved. BICS, in partnership with Anapaya, is enabling a resilient SCION infrastructure for diverse entities, including government institutions, critical businesses, cloud platforms, network providers, and more.

Switzerland: the global proof point for SCION

Switzerland is the first country to deploy SCION at national scale, with major ISPs operating a secure-by-design connectivity backbone alongside the public internet.

At the core of this ecosystem is the Swiss Secure Financial Network (SSFN), which connects banks and critical financial institutions through a trusted SCION-powered network. Switzerland has since expanded SCION into healthcare, energy, and the payments industry, validating its role in sectors where resilience, sovereignty, and path control are essential.

Together, national ISP cooperation and strong regulatory alignment make Switzerland a real-world model for how SCION enables a safer, more controlled internet architecture.
