Amazon SES Achieves HIPAA Eligibility

Posted on: Jul 25, 2019

Amazon SES is now a HIPAA Eligible Service. HIPAA eligibility applies to all AWS Regions where Amazon SES is available.

If you have a HIPAA Business Associate Addendum (BAA) in place with AWS, you can now start using Amazon SES for your HIPAA eligible workloads.

If you don't have a BAA in place with AWS, or if you have any other questions about running HIPAA-regulated workloads on AWS, please contact us. For information and best practices about configuring AWS HIPAA Eligible Services to store, process, and transmit PHI, see the Architecting for HIPAA Security and Compliance on Amazon Web Services Whitepaper.
