Governmental institutions all over the world are trying to increase the level of security of their countries emphasizing the usage Information Technology solutions.

In this work we introduce a new Cloud architecture able to virtualize different types of sensing environments in virtual sensing elements, logically belonging to Cooperating Clouds.
