AWS has updated its conformance packs that validate security configurations against the Australian Government’s Information Security Manual (ISM) and Essential Eight cybersecurity strategies. Read this post to learn more.

In this blog, we will explore how customers can use Innovation Sandbox on AWS to transform the management of temporary sandbox environments, so that they can focus on driving innovation, skill building, and developing the next big technological breakthrough.

In this post, we provide step-by-step guidance for deploying Malcolm—an open source network traffic analysis suite—natively on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), using the on-demand compute, elasticity, and scalability of AWS to eliminate traditional infrastructure overhead. This approach is particularly beneficial for cost-conscious public sector (federal, state, and local), utility, and industrial customers who require network and security monitoring to deliver on their missions.

We’re excited to announce a significant milestone in our commitment to securing your cloud environments with a new Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) authorization at the Moderate impact level for Tenable Cloud Security—hosted on AWS GovCloud (US). This achievement extends from the existing FedRAMP authorized service of Tenable Government Solutions (also known as Tenable One). Both authorizations underscores Tenable’s dedication to providing best-in-class cloud security for even the most demanding cloud environments.

This post demonstrates how TLS inspection in Network Firewall provides visibility into encrypted traffic, even when browsers implement Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) or when SNI fields contain modified information.

AWS recommends that organizations prepare to recover workloads in case of cybersecurity incidents or business continuity events such as technical or natural disasters. In this post, we offer guidance and strategies for public sector organizations to use AWS infrastructure to operate resilient systems in the cloud.

Macquarie University today announced a significant advancement in its digital transformation journey, partnering with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to create a modern, cloud-first environment that will revolutionize its technology infrastructure and services delivery.

The University of Minnesota Athletics Department had access to a lot of data, but lacked a way to bring it together. Even answering simple questions, like how many tickets were sold and who received them, required hours of cross-platform data wrangling. In less than a year, the department replaced that complexity with a scalable data lake built on AWS. The new data architecture—which gives the department full visibility into ticketing transactions and digital behavior—was built by a small internal team, without requiring a complete overhaul of their existing systems.

Today, Amazon Web Services (AWS) is announcing two new AWS WickrGov offerings designed to help customers rapidly deploy secure communications capabilities across their organizations.

In today’s rapidly evolving security landscape, the technological edge isn’t just an advantage—it’s a necessity. We’re thrilled to share a milestone that will transform how our government customers harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI): AWS is the first cloud provider to achieve FedRAMP High and Department of Defense (DoD) Cloud Computing Security Requirements Guide Impact Level 4 and 5 authorizations for Anthropic’s Claude and Meta’s Llama AI foundation models.
