In the post Automate AWS GovCloud (US) account creation using AWS Organizations APIs, we showed how to programmatically create GovCloud (US) accounts using AWS Organizations APIs. That post ends at account creation—the new accounts exist but the standard account remains in the organization root while the GovCloud (US) account remains a standalone account. You must manually complete the steps to join a GovCloud (US) organization and move accounts to the correct organizational units (OUs).

In this post, we explore how Amazon Web Services (AWS) Wickr and AWS WickrGov serve as the nexus for field operators to use well-architected mission workloads and state-of-the-art models on AWS with existing military equipment.

This post shows how to build that on Amazon Web Services (AWS) using Amazon Bedrock, deployed in AWS GovCloud (US). You’ll deploy a working multi-agent workload, see how a supervisor coordinates specialized agents through the Converse API in Amazon Bedrock, and learn which AWS GovCloud (US) details break patterns copied from commercial Regions.

Learn how Forseti, a public safety technology company, built the Honest Assessment Response Tool (HART) to meet survivors in that moment. Running on Amazon Web Services (AWS), HART digitizes on-scene domestic violence risk screening, connects survivors to services in real time, and gives state agencies population-level visibility into intimate partner violence patterns.

This post describes the program for the 2026 cycle, the services it covers, and how eligible campaigns and committees can enroll. Since AWS first joined DDC in 2020 and expanded the offering in 2022 and again in 2024, eligible campaigns and committees of any size and on either side of the aisle have used these services to protect the data, identities, and applications they rely on through Election Day.

In this post, we explore a human-in-the-loop (HITL) framework in the form of architectural patterns teams can use to introduce agentic AI incrementally into eligibility workflows that are adapted to their programs, policies, and risk tolerances.

Read this post to learn about AWS Wickr, a messaging and collaboration service that protects messaging, calling, file sharing, screen sharing, and location sharing with 256-bit end-to-end encryption (E2EE). Wickr combines advanced security for sensitive communications, administrative controls for user and policy management, and data retention for auditing and regulatory needs.

In this post, we explain how the U.S. Army cut critical software delivery process times by up to 75% using AWS GovCloud (US) and AI-powered automation and how your R&D program can overcome lengthy authorization cycles, distributed team collaboration challenges, and Impact Level 5 (IL5) compliance requirements with SPDS.

As part of AWS’s up to $50 billion commitment to deploy integrated AI and HPC cloud infrastructure for the U.S Government, we’re driving American AI innovation by expanding AI model choice in our AWS Government Regions. We’re excited to share that AWS GovCloud (US) now offers multiple AI model families through Amazon Bedrock, giving government customers, their supporting industrial base, and technology partners the AI model choice their missions demand.

Today, AWS GovCloud (US) is the operational backbone of some of the nation’s most critical applications spanning security and defense, energy, public health and financial services. Fifteen years in, and that mission focus still defines everything AWS GovCloud (US) delivers.
