You can now use Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA) for use cases that are subject to Service Organization Control (SOC) requirements. MWAA is now SOC 1, 2 and 3 compliant, allowing you to get deep insight into the security processes and controls that protect customer data. AWS maintains SOC compliance through extensive third-party audits of AWS controls. These audits ensure that the appropriate safeguards and procedures are in place to protect against security risks that may affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of customer and company data. AWS SOC reports are independent third-party examination reports that you can download in AWS Artifact.

Amazon MWAA is a managed orchestration service for Apache Airflow that makes it easier to set up and operate end-to-end data pipelines in the cloud. Being in scope for SOC means that customers can now use Amazon MWAA to manage workflows that require audited evidence of the controls in AWS SOC reporting.

You can launch a new Amazon MWAA environment with just a few clicks in the AWS Management Console in all currently supported Amazon MWAA regions. To learn more about SOC, please visit the Spring 2023 SOC Security Blog. To learn more about Amazon MWAA visit the Amazon MWAA documentation.
