The U.S. Navy has long been at the forefront of innovation, particularly when it comes to securing our nation’s interests beneath the waves. As the challenges of underwater defense continue to evolve, the Navy, in partnership with the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), has embarked on a groundbreaking initiative to harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) for underwater target threat detection.

In this blog, we introduce AWS Zero Trust Accelerator for Government – Integrated (ZTAG-I), a reference architecture that aligns with federal zero trust guidance. ZTAG-I accelerates adoption of zero trust architecture by providing a tested example of a fully integrated technology stack that solves key challenges that arise when adopting zero trust.

AWS has achieved the U.S. Department of Defense’s (DoD) Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 certification for the Controlled Working Environment (CWE). This certification enhances our DoD contract support capabilities and demonstrates our cybersecurity commitment.

In this blog post, we’ll share how the Republic of Singapore’s Air Force, with the support of AWS, responded to a specific challenge: how to operate unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or drones) in a crowded, complex airspace.

By using the robust capabilities within AWS GovCloud, Trackable Health has developed a comprehensive trackable solution that delivers real-time health and fitness tracking and personalized readiness scores, providing immediate feedback and AI-powered recommendations for improvement. Read this post to learn more about Trackable Health’s solution.

The US Department of Defense (DoD) increasingly relies on commercial efforts to adopt and integrate novel and emerging technologies that are critical for mission success. The modern defense landscape evolves rapidly, and industry collaboration is a key component of success. AWS has risen to the challenge to fulfill this commercial- and collaborative-focused approach to advancing military innovation. Most recently, AWS did so through its participation in the Technology Readiness Experimentation (T-REX) series of events with partner General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT),

When Department of the Air Force (DAF) software factories scale their cloud operations across mission-critical environments, maintaining consistent resource tagging becomes crucial for security, compliance, and operational effectiveness. For organizations like Kessel Run, a unit that provides capabilities within the DAF Battle Network, ensuring compliance while maintaining rapid deployment capabilities is essential for delivering capabilities to warfighters. In this post, we discuss a solution that enabled Kessel Run to enforce tagging standards at resource creation while supporting their complex deployment patterns.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is pleased to announce that AWS Marketplace has received “Awardable” status in the Department of Defense (DoD) Platform One (P1) Solutions Marketplace. This designation enables DoD organizations to readily access and procure solutions through AWS Marketplace using established acquisition pathways.

Across NATO’s 32 member states, today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape requires continuous modernization of advanced technology solutions, underscoring the strategic importance of the alliance’s digital transformation. This modernization effort demands speed, scale, security, and global innovation capabilities to stay ahead. Collaborating with technology leaders like Amazon Web Services (AWS) can accelerate innovation and NATO’s ability to deliver mission-ready solutions to counter known and emerging threats.

Global leaders are convening in Germany this week at the annual Munich Security Conference (MSC) to discuss key foreign policy and security challenges. Amid these discussions, one thing is clear: global leadership increasingly hinges on technological progress. In particular, the rapid progress of artificial intelligence (AI) presents an extraordinary opportunity for transformative innovation. For the U.S. government, this moment marks a crucial inflection point: embrace bold modernization of digital infrastructure and AI investment or risk being outpaced by global competitors.
