SECURITY
• Cloud security at AWS is the highest priority. As an AWS customer, you will benefit from a data center and network architecture built to meet
the requirements of the most security-sensitive organizations. Security in the cloud is much like security in your on-premises data centers—only
without the costs of maintaining facilities and hardware. In the cloud, you don’t have to manage physical servers or storage devices. Instead,
you use software-based security tools to monitor and protect the flow of information into and out of your cloud resources. An advantage of the
AWS Cloud is that it allows you to scale and innovate, while maintaining a secure environment and paying only for the services you use. This
means that you can have the security you need at a lower cost than in an on-premises environment. As an AWS customer you inherit all the
best practices of AWS policies, architecture, and operational processes built to satisfy the requirements of our most security-sensitive
customers. Get the flexibility and agility you need in security controls. The AWS Cloud enables a shared responsibility model. While AWS
manages security of the cloud, you are responsible for security in the cloud. This means that you retain control of the security you choose to
implement to protect your own content, platform, applications, systems, and networks no differently than you would in an on-site data center.
AWS provides you with guidance and expertise through online resources, personnel, and partners. AWS provides you with advisories for
current issues, plus you have the opportunity to work with AWS when you encounter security issues. You get access to hundreds of tools and
features to help you to meet your security objectives. AWS provides security-specific tools and features across network security, configuration
management, access control, and data encryption. Finally, AWS environments are continuously audited, with certifications from accreditation
bodies across geographies and verticals. In the AWS environment, you can take advantage of automated tools for asset inventory and
privileged access reporting.

BENEFITS
• Keep Your Data Safe: The AWS infrastructure puts strong safeguards in place to
help protect your privacy. All data is stored in highly secure AWS data centers.
• Meet Compliance Requirements: AWS manages dozens of compliance programs
in its infrastructure. This means that segments of your compliance have already
been completed.
• Save Money: Cut costs by using AWS data centers. Maintain the highest
standard of security without having to manage your own facility.
• Scale Quickly: Security scales with your AWS Cloud usage. No matter the size of
your business, the AWS infrastructure is designed to keep your data safe.
