Whether you’re a technical architect, systems integrator, or government technology leader, this post provides the technical insights needed to understand and implement MOSIP (Modular Open-Source Identity Platform) on AWS effectively.

This blog post provides a comprehensive overview of the custom large language model (LLM) development lifecycle for public sector use, emphasizing scientific methodology and measurable outcomes.

Fischer Identity, a leader in identity and access management (IAM) and identity governance for higher education, partnered with the AWS Product Acceleration education technology (EdTech) team to build a generative AI tool that converts natural language into SQL queries—moving from proof of concept in 5 days and to beta readiness in only 6 months. This post explores how the collaboration produced a text-to-SQL solution that nontechnical security administrators can use to get instant answers.

Public sector organizations and technology vendors across industries—from healthcare and education to public safety and citizen services—struggle with complex identity integration requirements when deploying applications across multiple facilities and jurisdictions. This post demonstrates how organizations can eliminate integration delays using an automated metadata extraction solution built on AWS that provides self-service access to Amazon Cognito user pools metadata through a serverless REST API.

This blog explores how the University of Sheffield uses AWS Partner RONIN Core and RONIN Isolate solutions to deliver a Trusted Research Environment (TRE) built on AWS infrastructure, enabling secure research and collaboration with sensitive data through the university’s Data Connect service. Secure and compliant infrastructure is essential for sensitive research. Many research institutions use a research Landing Zone to build Secure Research Environments (SRE) that provide the foundational compliance infrastructure—meeting standards like the National Institutes of Health (NIH) NIST 800-171, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and CMMC—upon which TREs like RONIN can build secure research workflows.

According to the World Bank’s Identification for Development (ID4D) initiative, approximately 850 million people globally don’t have official identification. This prevents citizens from access to essential services including healthcare, education, and social benefits. To address these challenges, Atos and AWS have collaborated on an innovative cloud-based digital identity system using the Modular Open-Source Identity Platform (MOSIP), making these systems more accessible, secure, and scalable than ever before.

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.
