Nonprofit organizations face unique security challenges due to their resource constraints and prioritization of mission-focused initiatives. In this blog post, we discuss Amazon Web Services (AWS) security best practices to accelerate mission impact and demonstrate how upfront security investments can both improve security and save time on redundant processes in the long run.

Organizations adopting modern software development activities continue to embrace the advantages of AI and large language models (LLMs), maximizing the productivity of developers. Amazon Q Developer provides you with an AI coding companion that delivers direct access for developers to the AI companion within the integrated development environment (IDE). In this post, we walk you through an example you can use leveraging the power of Amazon Bedrock to provide a coding assistant in your IDE.

In this blog, we provide deployment guidance that is intended to help you get started quickly with Wickr Enterprise for capability testing.

The US Department of Defense (DoD) increasingly relies on commercial efforts to adopt and integrate novel and emerging technologies that are critical for mission success. The modern defense landscape evolves rapidly, and industry collaboration is a key component of success. AWS has risen to the challenge to fulfill this commercial- and collaborative-focused approach to advancing military innovation. Most recently, AWS did so through its participation in the Technology Readiness Experimentation (T-REX) series of events with partner General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT),

In this post, we walk through a step-by-step guide to building your own Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) solution on AWS, complete with open-source instructions and best practices. Learn how to harness the same technological foundations that power enterprise-grade proposal automation while maintaining security, compliance, and content quality.

When Department of the Air Force (DAF) software factories scale their cloud operations across mission-critical environments, maintaining consistent resource tagging becomes crucial for security, compliance, and operational effectiveness. For organizations like Kessel Run, a unit that provides capabilities within the DAF Battle Network, ensuring compliance while maintaining rapid deployment capabilities is essential for delivering capabilities to warfighters. In this post, we discuss a solution that enabled Kessel Run to enforce tagging standards at resource creation while supporting their complex deployment patterns.
