AWS Transfer Family supports FIPS 140-2 compliant endpoints in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions
AWS Transfer Family now offers Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 compliant endpoints in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions to protect sensitive information. These endpoints terminate Transport Layer Security (TLS) sessions using a FIPS 140-2 compliant cryptographic software module, making it easier for you to use Transfer Family for regulated workloads.
AWS Transfer Family simplifies migration of file transfer workflows to AWS, without needing to modify end user credentials, scripts, network configurations, or manage servers. To use this new capability, select the FIPS endpoint option when creating your AWS Transfer Family server and all requests over Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) and File Transfer Protocol over SSL (FTPS) will only use FIPS compliant encryption.
FIPS 140-2 compliant endpoints for AWS Transfer Family are available in AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. You can learn more by reading the AWS Transfer Family product page, user guide, and get started in the AWS Transfer Family Console.
